Somebody above urgency to come. Through the mist with a flint, his clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Most sons of the republic arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great republic and each god given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters behind the lines in occupied territories Southwest Southeast South and Northeast Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on Www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com Liberty Tree radio.org You haven't tried that page out. You should just to see if you may or may not get a better connection because of the process you go through looking up to a different web page. We're also on satellite. Want to say hi out there waving across the Salton Seas to all of our global satellite receivers, listeners, and repeaters. I want to say thank you. We appreciate that. We're probably even in the Arctic Ocean, which is really cool right now. We've never been that far. Somebody's making it happen. I want to say thank you. So appreciate that. We're also in a myriad plethora of cornucopia of communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States to include AM and FM microstations. Want to say hi to 97.5 FM new. Got a couple added stations to a little daisy chain that was put together by one of our radio geeks. And so a few more people probably or several hundred or several thousand may be listening a little farther down the road. They're covering a highway for a number of hours now in terms of if you were driving along that stretch. We appreciate the work there. And of course, they carry a variety of programming in addition to Liberty Tree Radio. It is Tuesday communications Tuesday, but a whole lot more. It is the 7th of June. It is the 14th year. of open, obvious, and oh my God, look at these turds pissing in your face, baby in the socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a 2022 old earth calendar, 2022 battle for the Republic, the dance of swords, let the dance continue and it has. Hey, I've planted some parsley today. Well, replanted it, just had some little orphan plants and One of the many things they would just get them in the ground, get them in dirt, they'll grow all on their own. It's nice to get them started. They keep going. Just make sure they got sunshine, water, and a little blue juice once in a while. Interestingly enough, a couple things going back to communications. Micro-FM's. I know I've had a couple of different requests about us putting together a micro-FM kit. We actually have had that project sitting. Only because other people have been building some pretty decent models. Ramsey is long gone. The basic Ramsey 100 kit could be put together quite easily. I actually tracked on all the parts for that. I think there's only two. One is the programmable chip, which is not a big deal. It's a very unsophisticated component. and easily put together, so easily programmed actually. The software, everything needed to do it is off the shelf, old earth nowadays. I mean really it's, you know, kids stuff, so it's not a problem. The big thing is, again, with the micro-FM's, you don't have to run them. You can leave them on standby, but you do want to experiment with them to see how your signal is going out. And I have to reinforce this every once in a while. Your best choice is actually to use your cars. If you set up a micro FM station, best way to do that so it doesn't throw a whole lot of attention is pick some middle-aged music, an album, something you can easily recognize. Put a plug a CD player into your FM transmitter and let it play. And then take your automobiles, if you got more than one friend, it'd be kind of nice. More than one friend. And what you do is drive four points of the compass. away from the transmitter to see how far the automobiles radio picks up the signal. It's very simple straightforward way to monitor what other people are going to hear. Amazingly enough years ago, we had one transmitter was put up in the up towards Midland. And the assumption was they were doing probably around 9 to 11 miles turned out that just the nature of the antenna, I don't know, ionosphere, re interference radiation from wherever it was reaching 27 miles in one direction. Now it wasn't omnidirectional, it wasn't a perfect circular print and it is rather interesting the way the antenna worked. But 27 miles for what was a 25 watt micro FM broadcasting unit without an amplifier, then they added an amplifier and we had to tune it down because we didn't want to go 27 miles. I didn't want the footprint to go that far. But the operator did want cleaner signals, so by adding the amplifier and tuning everything out, tuning everything to compress the signal, the FM signal, which is like a mushroom, it's not a massive wave communication system like AM. It goes out so far and it drops. And I guess the best way to describe it is take a soup bowl, turn it upside down, and that's how your signal works. you know, put your transmitter in the middle, but remember that there are variations. It depends on the type of antenna configuration that you have, etc. But... A 10 watt, a 15 watt, a 25 watt station will easily cover a local community quite comfortably for anywhere from as little as eight or nine miles to as great as 25, 30, even 40 miles, depending upon the height of the transceiver, or forgive me, transmitter, to the rest of the listening audience. In fact, height gives you range. Always remember that. So that's another thing that helps. But if you're going to do a micro FM, you do want to test for distance. You know what your footprint is. One of the reasons example is the little program program station that we have people listening on right now to couple of new ones. Part of a series is you map out your transmitters so that they're just at the edge of each other's transmission and they don't they don't create a dead zone because they know out each other's signal. You want it just so they're on the edge and moving to the next and the operator does not even have to change the setting on the FM radio as they're traveling down the interstate or the state highway or wherever you are. So it's pretty simple, pretty straightforward. I've been doing it for decades. There's a lot of micro-fems out there that have been around now and some of you are listening right now as we speak. You guys are listening in. The operator is for anywhere from 10 to 20 to 30 to even 40 years. There's a couple that we have that are over towards Chicago off the I-94 corridor and they have been running indefinitely. I mean, I think more than 40 years. But they've been doing Patriot type broadcasting or rebroadcasting of other network capabilities. Again, and taking advantage of filling the airwaves with what they wanted to. And they have a really good listenership, people who are there every day, which is really cool. So you'll be surprised at how many people are listening. Anyway, the big thing is get it done. Go ahead and figure out how to make it happen. We're working on this from the other end. I'm trying to decide where to put in another electronic shop. We've got tons and tons of extra material. I mean tons of electronics. The latest thing I've been running into is the solder guns, solder, fixtures, connectors, all kinds of fun stuff that usually nickels and dimes you to death in the horrible ways. Right now, this is the time. Nobody wants to work, but don't have a clue about machinery. If you get to your state sales or any of these other, you know, sites, resale sites, tons of stuff out there for pennies, for pennies. You're not out anything, but you're going to get equipment that costs thousands of dollars. when it was originally built and would still cost comparably if you had to go out, if you could go out and find it and it was American made which most of it is not American made anymore. Okay, we've lost that technology. So electronics were screwed in that respect. It's all foreign, everything's foreign. So that's where we have to scavenge where we can and we also pay attention to industrial surplus, etc, etc, to get the job done. So anyway, just a touch on that and again thank you to our micro FM broadcasters. That's what Communications Tuesday is supposed to do is acknowledge our friends and also give you ideas. Another thing, real quick is, since it's Communications Tuesday, reflectors. semaphore type signaling systems that do not require batteries and cannot easily be intercepted. Now we've talked about it now you can use any flashlight with a cardboard tube or a PVC tube. And you can create a highly directional restricted signaling device that can semaphore slash Morse code any signal that you want out to the horizon. Only you and whoever you're pointing it at typically is going to be able to see what it is that's happening in the way of a signal. During the day, you have Mr. Sunlight. And provided that you have a mirror and a little bit of creative research into the whole idea of using a reflective semaphore system. out to the horizon again. As far as you can see, a reflector system using a Morse code or a dot dash code of whatever configuration. It doesn't have to be the original Morse. You can be creative. I don't know how long that'll last because how effective your enemy is at decoding things. But it will work and it is something that you need to be thinking about. Signal mirrors. I have not seen the really good aviator signal mirrors in quite some time. They actually have an aiming hole in the center. It is reflective, but it's a two-way near surface right in the center. This allows you to actually look at your objective and target and signal and be able to observe that you're actually splashing the target. For instance, if you're trying to signal for an aircraft to support or recognize you're on the ground, but you can also use it for direct signal and communications person to person. over much greater distances without shouting. And we've got to call her. Who do we have? Hey, it's Will from Florida. Probably won't be able to be on too long today, but I figured I'd call in and say hi. I was listening to one of your other broadcasts and I just realized there's something you say at the beginning a lot of the times and I guess I don't know what it is. When you say the word goyum, what does that actually translate to? What's the origin of that? Sorry to get you off topic. It's Jewish. Oh, no, that's Jewish. It's animal without a soul. When you hear them talking about, you know, if you're not Jewish, there's a Shabbagoi, Shabbagoyim, Goi, Hitzakoi, that's another one, and all of these terms are derogatory towards the unclean, as in Christians or anybody else is not Jewish. What it translates out to directly, if you go to the Encyclopedia Judaicae, is animal without a soul. So when you hear somebody do that on the movies or somebody on television and they think they're being, if it's in the movie and it's there, you go, yeah, ha, ha, ha, they're not being funny. It is as absolutely derogatory as someone could possibly be, and it's comparable to the N word. In their mind, it is the same cuz for instance, Shabbat Goa'im or Shabbat Goa'im is a black Goa'im. Basically, it overlaps because it can also be slave, slave goy or animal without a soul, but property. They consider all of this property anyway. But the word goyim, if you don't know what that means, all you have to do is go to the encyclopedia, judekka. They get much more in depth on it, of course, that helps you. And remember all the substrata that I just mentioned, you can find it if you look at, for instance, Yiddish. If you've been around enough pawnbrokers and you listen and pay attention while you act like your brain is shut off, you'd be amazed at what you can hear. Same with scrap dealers, of course, in Detroit. I'm telling you, I used to deal with them. It's just the way it is. That's okay. You smile and act like you don't know anything and you pay attention to remember, register that to understand the person you're looking at with them. Thanks, I was just wondering. Yeah, how they look at you. Think about that. Remember when and it's not funny. It is not funny, but you'll find it in like 60s 60s politically, you know political agenda television you'll find it in 70s sitcoms and 80s sitcoms They're not as common to do it now, but they just simply are wagging their weaning in your face constantly. So Again, it's not that might be in the vocabulary Go ahead. That might be, they might not use it as much because somebody might actually look it up. Right. Oh yeah, it's more your fingertips if actually, but oh, it just means now here's what's cute. What they're not lying. What does koi mean? If you ask somebody who's Jewish and they're, they're, they're scurrilous. Oh, it just means the non Jew. That's not what I asked. What does the, what does the word translate out to or mean? Oh, well, I'm not really showing because I never really looked at that. They'd be lying because they know exactly what it means. Go ahead. I heard another voice jump in their car. Hey, Mark, this is Irish whiskey along those lines of what you're talking about. Just a funny thing occurred in my area in the Appalachian Mountains. There was actually a guardrail where on the end of the guardrail on the yellow part, yellow painted area, someone painted in black lettering the goyim no and That message stayed on the end of the guardrail for weeks and weeks. I was surprised it lasted so long My only thought was well, maybe the people in this area don't know what it means though. Nobody really That's only half the phrase the full phrase is the goyim no shut it down That's the full phrase. Oh, okay. You can only fit so much on a rail. Yeah, but that's yeah again It's that's a good question because vocabulary guys words mean something Your enemy, let me get point this out again. This is communication is Tuesday. Words mean something, okay? When you see these sleaze balls that are sitting there, especially like the slob you see that are in Washington like Schumer, you know, Chucky the possum Schumer, the reason I call him that, go look at his promo picture in Washington that's on file when you go to the Senate. Go take a look at Chucky the possum's picture and tell me it doesn't look like. If you've ever seen a possum coming out of the rear end of a cow, A dead cow? That's exactly what they look like. Checky the possum shumer. And of course, the picture is totally outdated from how old that fart is anyway. But I mentioned this many times with communications, what you think they're saying and what they think they're saying are two different things. Well, gee, Mr. Blatz and Steen. Do you believe in human rights? Or do you believe in civil rights? Or do you believe in rights for people? And of course, they'll look at you slightly and little sideways and I believe in rights for all human beings. And of course, you go, oh, did you hear that? He's just like we are. He believes in rights for all human beings. Oh, that's wonderful. Yeah, but he didn't say that he believed in rights for you. Why is that? Because it's all a matter of word twisting. When he said, well, I believe in civil rights or human rights, I believe in rights for all human beings. Or do you think he considers you a human being? If he has ever blurted out or used in his vocabulary on and off regularly, the word goyum or goy, right off the bat by base definition of his training in education, he does not consider you a human. So one of the things to remember is that he's not lying. He's just not qualifying the lie. He's keeping the words here. He's letting you believe whatever you believe he said. Not what was really said go ahead I heard them similar about that I think with the Muslim faith Where they say that in the Muslim faith thou shall not kill but another man But they only believe that if you follow their sect of Islam you are a man other everyone else are considered other Right exactly, but remember those two are joined at the hip contrary to everybody thinks You know, have you anybody seen Israel attack Saudi Arabia? When Israel argues with somebody in the Middle East, it's usually someone that the Saudi Arabians want dead. The example is when the Gulf War took place. Okay, number one, the Israelis wanted to steal Babylon blind, so to speak. Well, western slash, you know, Iraq rather than Iran proper. But fact of the matter is that the Saudis in Iraq were not getting along. And you might recall though, everybody seems to shut their brain off on this that we operated out of Saudi Arabia and the Israelis, Mossad, coached and lied to our troops and pumped them all up about killing Iraqis, women and kids do, because we did. And that's just a fact, okay, because of some of the stuff that they did, because they were all told that everybody was gonna be a suicide bomber, and every car was gonna be a suicide car bomb. And all the television programs and everything they did from Hollywood about the Middle East, they reinforced that. So when carload after carload of people tried to lead Baghdad, everybody got killed, women, kids, babies, they didn't care. There's one image with over 90 cars lined up one after another and the other car come up They just nail it with a machine gun and everybody fire on it. Our troops had no problems doing that. Nobody had a bomb Next car came up. They did it again Another car came up behind the other two three didn't think about probably till was too late if it was night or day They killed everybody six seven kids in the car baby in a car mom in the car kids in the car grandma the car They're all dead who coached him on that? He's really And they all drank the Kool-Aid. But we were at risk. Well, if you look at the 90 cars, not one of them blew up for all that small arms fire. They burned in some cases, but they didn't blow up because they didn't have any bombs on board. None of them did, but that's okay. And they marched on that. And who were the Israelis sided with without any problem? The Saudi Arabians. But they were busy killing the Iraqis. Yeah, they can kill the Syrians for the Saudis and the Israelis too. You're not a sad? Good callers, you'll be there. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia. Isn't it interesting that ISIS and NATO once attacked Israel? I was waiting for it. If I'd held my breath, I'd be dead right now. Exactly. And again, that's an example. Of course, the Israeli secret intelligence service is not going to attack the people that feed it. You know, made it. So that's that in fact here again, what do I have been talking about your last couple of weeks guys? You know, isn't it amazing? There's no discussion about Arab terrorists and yet for 30, 40, 50 years, almost long as all you guys have been alive. Some of you as long as you've been alive. You've had Hollywood movies telling you about them, they're Arab terrorists and how we got to watch it because they're going to come across and land on the beaches or they're going to fly in with a plane or wait a minute, they can walk across the border. So we're just letting everybody come across the border. How many Arab terrorists came across the border? We don't even think about that, do we? Isn't that amazing how manipulative the propaganda mouthpieces of the controlled media Hollywood and the Jewish mafia are? Cuz now we just don't need to think about Arab terrorists anymore. Now all of a sudden we gotta go kill Russia's Danians. We gotta go kill Russia, or better still, the corporation of the United States wants to kill American. But we don't have to worry about them, they're A-Rab terrorists no more, do we? They're just all gone. Planes aren't blowing up. People aren't being machine gun, they are. In fact, we don't know if some of those weren't done by whoever. Maybe some hired A-Rab terrorists working for the Israelis inside the United States. Why not they have been trained? Yeah, Mark, isn't that fascinating? Good color ship in there. The Arabs can't get passports anymore Does anybody need a passport anymore only Americans Yeah, only America right now while we're talking guys. Has anybody seen the picture of the latest wave? It's literally it's remember the caravans that they didn't want anybody to talk about but everybody pointed out here a few years ago Well, if you saw the footage from yesterday in central Mexico leading to northern Mexico, right now it's like the difference between a brigade versus several divisions or an army corps. It is a massive wave of nonstop bodies and they are all getting ready to jump the fence. Right now, but they're already doing it even while we're talking, you know It's not measured in how many dozen just jumped over the border while we've done the last half hour It's how many hundreds have jumped over the border in the last half hour or how many thousands Think about that in the half hour that we've been up on the air We're at the bottom of the hour right now in the last half hour since we started this program illegal aliens from anywhere have been allowed to waddle across the border because of the traitors and the people we have inside the United States who hate this country and want to destroy everything that they possibly can and burn it down. Now they won't build better. They aren't going to build any better anything because they don't know how to build in the first place. The jackasses, it's like the Well, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, that kosher piece of tripe that goes, well, I didn't expect this to do the inflation thingy like this. I was wrong. I didn't know. I didn't know. I really didn't know. Well, okay. You know what's funny about that? She looks like she could be just maybe not much older than I am. And if that's the case, that silly twit, who by the way is Jewish, they always tell you all the Jewish people are so much more educated than you are. The Edgemicated, the Edgemicated, oi. Well if that's the case, well super Jew there. should have known right off the bat exactly what was gonna happen. She has had a little bit of time in school and even if you don't get a lot of economics, the discussion about quote unquote inflation, etc. Some of it might stick if you're a bonehead, maybe not. But since one thing that Jewish people are interested in is money, let me tell you, what about the money? Then you're a long way. They figured a lot of you that we got new money. It's called a schlepper. It's a wooden nickel. Yeah, well, half a nickel. You're talking too much. Maybe the nickel thing was to expense and we're not even gonna stamp anything on it. And that's the thing about this. She actually sat there and said that she did not know. That's a lion skunk right from the get go. But she's like, well, well, someone's gonna blame someone rightly so when you're to blame which? And that's with a W, that little kosher witch right there is to blame, but she's not the only one. She's not by herself, none of them are by themselves. There is no single twit or idiot stick that we have in the system that is the only one to blame. They all cooperated, sat down at the same table and are working together. But what's amazing is, traditionally guys, I've mentioned this many times, the Committee of Monkeys. I watch this at the University of Michigan, decisions could be made in a few minutes if you had a regular American management system, but all of a sudden we had to have the commissariat slash the communist committee of monkeys thing. And the worst part was participating this and I was with operations. And so everybody takes turns, it's kind of like, well, the military, we did this, but we did it from each of the G2 shops, forgive me, G2, each of the shops, G1, G2, G3, et cetera. And everybody took turns representing because you have to report what's being done. It's not that you're necessarily gonna be told what's gonna be what to do. You already know your job and pretty much it's on idle. No matter what, it's a routine. But with these committee monkey meetings, We would do nothing. The objective was everybody came together, they would pontificate, the management would. They didn't have to make a decision. Well, I want to soon our pick it off all 20 of you here. Well, 19 because the one number 20 is the guy who's talking. And it'd be like, okay, we settled nothing and we're gonna have to have another meeting and the next meeting will be on, hold down here and he'd check his pad and go, oh yeah, it's gonna be a week and a half out. And of course, the good thing is when you want these meetings, you got bangles, you got danishes, you got five different types of herbal teas, you got cappuccino or you could have regular coffee. It was a very nice experience to sit down, stare at all these other dingleberries and accomplish nothing because you spent your hours, you took hours to attend the meeting. You got nothing done. And we finally figured out that at the end of the meeting, one thing might be mentioned as a settled item, but it'd be like, well, we've all agreed that we're going to have another meeting. So we finally figured out that with the Committee of Monkeys, of course, nobody had to make any decisions ergo, nobody was responsible. Number two is it took 54 meetings to make and I'm not exaggerating on that. It took 54 meetings to make one significant decision in a year. Otherwise, it was the, well, I guess you're gonna get paid to basically spend your wheels, your chair and your butt cheeks go numb. Listen to Prattle, okay, or material information you already had because everybody's reiterating stuff that we already knew because, well, we do kind of work together. And this became the norm and it was part of the, of course, then there was the discussion about having kind of a semi-vote. That way the boss didn't make the decision. Ergo, theoretically, the boss couldn't be held responsible. And it's the same dribble you're seeing here. All these characters got together. They're all sitting at the same table. They used to show you that in the morning. I mean, do they not do this anymore? Where you have a, what's that term guys? Cabinet meeting. And each morning that cabinet meeting with either the primary secretary or whoever holds whatever office or their direct, direct number two man or a specific technical aid. It shows up to give a report so that everybody is up to speed for that day moving into the next 23 hour period. Now, granted, I don't have a problem with my enemy cluster screwing up the way that they are and I hope that they continue to fail nonstop. But again, for our side, I'm going to remind you guys, the American management system is why we kicked ass, took names, and we were a power to reckon with. We're now a laughing stock. And the reason we're a laughing stock is because the first phase of commie land is plugged in. Progressively step by step cronyism and all the other things that Anne Rand described in Atlas Shrugged. Well, not just will, those are already here. But the pull peddlers and all the other components of Atlas Shrugged, all of them are in place. What little is left is just around the corner with a natural progressive timeline of failure of the idiot sticks that collectively come together and create a failed state, which is what we're dealing with right now. And the OI boys know exactly what they're doing and know exactly how it's damaging the country. We get ahead of that stick. No wait look at the stick. It's what the heck and what a hell of a play acting thing I'm telling you a stick And said let's get ahead of that beat this to meet the beat the snot out of these fools The American management system is what will be decisive in the process of combat operations Okay, even the military is already corrupted with the same kind of buffoonery Let's hope it stays that way meanwhile again decisive action specific with a specific mind and all the rest, all the other parties cooperating with a common liberty interest, can run circles around the baboons, fools, and idiots, and wicked people that we're facing. And we outnumber them. So we've got an edge. But in order to keep it, we have to get focused. We really have to get focused. I cannot emphasize enough communications of any kind because as much as anything, we'll be shutting the cell system off. The cell phone system is going to be gone. I don't know what a lot of people are going to do. They're going into brain fart, but the cell phone system systematically is going to be shut down. And it probably will not be coming back. Now, an Internet system, an expanded Internet system, you get rid of most of these other corporation problems that we're dealing with. And that can be done quite easily. I mean, the Russians already showed you exactly where to go. That sounds weird, but think about it's like well, you know what we'll talk amongst ourselves But we really don't need to go past the borders and since all this garbage coming in from the outside is purely designed to undermine us Why are we letting it in in the first place? If you're going to be American we're going to have to focus on promoting the American system and American society Everybody else does we're just the only ones aren't supposed to and boy talk about the Jewish mob with Israel Listen, don't go to Israel and try to think you're gonna stand out in the streets and apostolize if you think you're a Christian and they love Christians Yeah, you go out over go over to Israel You're up there on the street corner start talking about Jesus Christ and watch to see how long you get your ass beat down Oh, by the way, you'll be arrested too. Oh, by the way, you could be put in prison for up to five years, and typically it is five years. If you go and apostolize on the streets over there in Israel, because the OY boys like your money, they don't want to hear you yet. Everybody understand that? So in other words, you're useful, Goyem, but only for the time being. And the way that they're playing this out, all the idiot sticks and fools who thought they were some kind of special pet puppy with that crowd. are finding out that it doesn't work that way. So we all need to be prepared for the, prepared to deal with the problem. Real quick again, notice how they were kind of fumble mouthing on these quote unquote mass shootings because as everybody starts to look into all, everyone in the instance for this last weekend. Pretty much across the board is the Homie Fry popcorn shoot by the gangbangers and the other people, like I told you yesterday. Well, what about those other people? They were innocent buys, didn't know they weren't. They all knew it was gangbanger situation. They knew it was already tense. They went to watch that and become part of the drama. And well, wait a minute, they didn't wanna be part of the got shot drama, but they didn't wanna be able to get it on their cell phones. They could say they were there for the big Homie Fry shootout. Which by the way, there was a bunch of popcorn like that, you know garbage it came out and they kind of started pulling it off of first book and the other services Because it was basically, you know how they were one side of the other and they were gonna go after you know homie fry B who was gonna go after homie fry a who was gonna go after Yolanda who was gonna go after and it was pretty it was painted out pretty obvious that the thing was like many of the flash mobs and It was actually planned. No, it doesn't mean that the person who planned it was any of the people who were there as far as creating the confrontation. Guys, remember with a computer, you could be over in Israel and you could be as black as you wanna be and be flopping back and forth and stirring the pot and have another person come in who's supposedly black too. And not a single one of the people's profiles or a portfolio or pictures or anything are in any way, way, shape or form representative of what's actually going on at the keyboard and who's operating in. Keep that in mind. And that is the norm, not the exception. And again, there's a certain element of the population, especially with the shoe size IQ types that just love to play this out. It's a drama queen game. In the process, the same characters who stirred the pot are the same people then telling you, we need to disarm all of those guy. I'm the guy I need to be disarmed. It's like, what do you mean? What do you believe? But we weren't there and we have no interest in being there. I doubt that any of you listening, even if you are black or Asian or whatever, have any interest in both of these street type parties that we're talking about because you're not really parties. They're energetic. opportunity events for kinetic energy transfer. In other words, fights. Now to what degree people slice, dice, punch, or shoot is a matter of who brings what to the table when they go when they show up on the street. On the other hand, if some other people are a little better prepared, well, maybe the thing doesn't go very far like the one woman who shot the character who is trying to fire up the apartment complex here that nobody's talking about because it doesn't fit the bill. And by the way, she was a black woman and then the guy was a black guy so and the cops were not involved and the character came in and Apparently started causing all kinds of problems left came back was gonna shoot everything up. She basically pulled out her her legal weapon whatever the hell that means and Pop pop pop and guess what? The shooter wasn't a shooter anymore more That's just that kind of stuff that's not going to be talked about or covered. They can all avoid it like a plague. Go ahead, call or jump in there, please. Shelby from Oklahoma City. Have you covered, I haven't, I just chimed in, so have you covered the DHS security memo that they just put out either today or yesterday? No, no, go ahead, please. If you have it on hand? Yes, I do. It was put out on the, it was put out actually today at 9 a.m. Eastern time, summary of terrorism threat to the United States. The US remains in a heightened threat environment, as noted in previous bulletin. And recent attacks have highlighted the dynamic and complex nature of the threat environment. In the coming months, we expect the threat environment to become more dynamic, as several high profile events could be exploited to justify acts of violence against a range of possible targets. These targets could include public gatherings based institutions. schools, racial and religious minorities, government facilities and personnel, US critical infrastructure, the media and perceived ideological opponents. Threat actors have recently mobilized to violence due to factors such as personal grievances, reactions to current events and adherence to violent extremist ideologies. including racially or ethnically motivated or anti-government slash anti-authority violent extremism. Foreign adversaries, including terrorist organizations and national state adversaries also remain intent on exploiting the threat environments to promote or inspire violence, sow discord, or undermine the US democratic institutions. We continue to assess the primary threat. of mass casualty violence in the United States stems from lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs or personal grievances. And this was put out this morning, Mark. And- Oh, that's about as- Sorry, go ahead. I'll put out- No, no, no, no. Remember, I reported on this last year during the inauguration, and I also mentioned it, I think, not too long ago. But during the inauguration, I posted on Discord, you'll have to go through and scroll. But one of the news media that morning before his swearing in, we're talking about last summer that they were gonna say that there was gonna be more events like Timothy McVeigh events, bombings, and stuff like that coming up in the summer was gonna ramp up. And they were saying that on the news, but nothing ever really transpired last year. So this could be, they're finally kicking that off. You know what's real cute about that is why why the summer? Let me let's think about this. Who worry the only groups of people that really deal with the seasonal uh let's say mechanical slash physical confrontation is the Black Lives Matter types or antifa. When it gets cold, they don't like to be in cold places. Anybody remember? And they'll go to the warm places or warmer places. In fact, if you think about it, as we had the weather kick in, the Antifa BLM government-sponsored terrorists operated farther and farther south or out west because weather conditions. Patriot movement, we really are 12 months out of the year, 365 days, there's no weather cycle to that. On the other hand, the groups that they don't want to acknowledge, the black militants, street gangs, black, white, and or Hispanic, but mostly Hispanic and black, are out there in force during the nice weather conditions. Another thing is the nebulous discussion, you know, personal, personal. What do you mean by personal? Oh, you mean where like Homie Fry is pissed at Vato saying, you know, you know, Sinclair and the two of them go at it because they have personal disagreements, you know, they're gang, one gang doesn't like the other? That's kind of personal, I guess. But the announcement is designed to be as nebulous as possible and really does not encompass anybody on our side. First of all, we don't riot, second of all, we don't bomb. And in fact, the lion's share, when I say lion's share, we're talking 99.99% of the bombings in the United States for the last 60 years. And I know this from personal briefings and experience, because we used to get no notes briefings on this on a regular basis when I was an Intel analyst. And for the last 50 years plus going on 60, it has been the leftists, it has been the blacks. I'll tell you what, the Puerto Ricans are really good for doing a whole lot of mayhem and elacious activity that nobody really talks about. There was a little mention of it, a tiny mention of it two days ago, or one day ago, yes, it'd be Monday morning, in the Congress. Little mention, just brushed over and then went on to other things. So, again, the types of activities, again, over and over are done either by the government, as government-sponsored terrorism, utilizing assets, typically the Israelis, and other foreign personnel and operators inside the United States against the American people. I would point out that you were the Puerto Rican Liberation Front, the, was it, FALN? or SLA, FLA and forgive me, Mark will get it right eventually. But anyway, the top three characters were Puerto Rican and they were Jewish. Most importantly, they were Jewish. They just happened to kind of be Puerto Rican. So, and there's more than one front, by the way, there's three different factions here that were traditionally bouncing back and forth vying for control in the process. They even went at each other once in a while. That's where Puerto Ricans. We also had, of course, the Hispanic gangs, which as you all know is expanded. Now we use the term cartel, and the cartels are coming up over the border en masse, but there's no discussion by Homeland, suck you righty about them. So whatever it is it's done, they'll try to claim that, oh my God, the white heterosexual male American is fully responsible for it. No, we're gonna be the ones fighting it. We'll be the ones stopping it. I would argue right now that it was something actually we were gonna talk about today, so this is kind of segueing into it. We need to be on the hunt for these characters coming out to try and perpetrate something. And if they try to create confrontation, We need to do what we have done in the past and keep who they send Does everybody understand that? Oh worry if they get caught there's even tell their own people if they get caught It's like all of the Israeli was sought operatives. They got captured after 9-11 in the days after 9-11 Why cuz they all look like Arabs, you know that a rap terrorist thing Which they're playing down completely because we notice even that DHS crap. Well, where'd all the a rap terrorists go guys? Oh, they're just kind of gone Well, what happened to that big Arab terrorist threat? I mean, after all, we pissed off everybody in Iraq. I don't think anybody likes us in most of Syria. The Kurds don't like us, we betrayed them. Remember 20 years ago, the whole Kurds thing, how Rah-Rah for the Kurds this and Rah-Rah for the Kurds that. And then once we got that all screwed up in Iraq, all of a sudden you don't hear about the Kurds hardly anymore. Go ahead, call and jump in there. Hey Mark, this is Todd Dono, and I'm going to... Okay, wait a minute. Okay, wait a minute. Okay, step for just a second, guys. I think I heard Shelby first. Todd, stay right where we are for just a second. Shelby, do you want to follow through on something? Yeah, I just want to wrap up real quick, Mark. That memo expires November 30th of this year at 2 p.m. So, I guess between now and November something, several events and stuff like that. You know, they keep talking about the infrastructure, like power's gonna go out. So that could apply to this stuff. So that's all I got, Mark. Well, that's good. Thank you, sir. Okay, Todd, jump in there. Go ahead. All right, so I've been going on eBay for a long time looking at CB radioed stuff. And right now, I'm seeing the prices start to seriously creep up. For example, I have a couple of Royce i620s. These are heavy Royce base stations that were first put out on the market back in the mid 70s. And I bought these on eBay over 10 years ago. They were like 20 bucks shipped to my house. It's like, you know, the guy would die and grandma would put the thing on eBay or give it to the kids or whatever and they just, whatever, we're just getting rid of it. Now, those same base stations You can't find them for less than like 80 or 100 bucks. Some of these things like a real popular base station for years and there used to be a lot of them on eBay is the realistic Navajo. It's the TRC 38. These things were on, you would have like 50 of these things on eBay at once and they would all be like 10, 12 bucks. Now they're around the $70 to $80 area. And in addition to that, the shipping charges have gone up dramatically, like exponentially in the last six months easily. So now, instead of paying 10 bucks for shipping on a CB radio, you're paying like 30 or 40 or 50 bucks. So the reason I'm saying this is, the number one thing I run into with people, just from my personal experience, I said you need to get something in the ground right now. Something, like an antenna up in the air. And they're like, well, I don't want to do CB unless I can get a single side band. And that costs more, so I'm going to hold off. Well, I don't want to do CB because I want to do ham because that's better and it's got more stations. The thing is this, the reality is in order to get a ham radio, an actual ham radio that goes from 10 to 160 meters, You're going to pay over $1,000 for a unit that's brand new. That is an absolute fact. And in order to get a tower and an antenna into the ground, you're going to be paying somewhere around $1,500 for the whole setup, plus you're going to have to go pass the test. The reason we harp on CD radio is that even if you only have 23 channels, at least you've got something where you can turn it on, you can put it on channel 19 and listen to what's going on. And if the dead key is at 1 watt or less than 1 watt, you're using no power to run the thing. But at least you can hear what's going on in the area around you, especially if you have a single-story house and you can get a decent antenna. And I'm not talking about one of these crappy antennas, but like a decent antenna, like a serial 827. It's going to cost you about $100. 50 maybe 180 bucks, but if you get it, you know some kind of pole in the ground put this thing to where the ground plane is above the top of the roof of your house. You need to get your coax cable and you need to get an SWR meter. If you can get these things, get the radio, get the antenna, get the coax cable and an SWR meter and a microphone. If you can just get these things right now, don't worry about putting it up. Just get it to where you have it because the prices are rising so much that it might get to the point where in a month or two we can see the prices of these CB radios doubling easily. So, you know, I know we talk about CB radio a lot and there's a lot of people out there who say they want to get a CB radio. Having a handheld is not enough. You need to get a base station and you need to get an antenna up in the air. If you get a two-story house with a chimney on it and you haven't put a CV antenna up on top of that tab conted in with some mounting material, you're not understanding what's going on. If you've got a two-story house and a chimney and your chimney goes over the top of your roof and you can put an antenna on that, that's a free tower. And you can run some coax all the way down to the bottom as well as a grounding system where you're grinding it with copper wire and copper rods into the ground. Run the coax into the house. You can hear, if you go to a two story house, you will cheer everything basically in North America and what's going on. And if you have a radio and it's only four watt, you're still going to be able to get out on push to talk. You're still going to be able to send them out. a signal out 20, maybe even 30 miles. And this doesn't cost a lot right now, but it cost a whole lot less 10 years ago. And I know a lot of people that are in the militia movement and in the proper movement understand what I'm saying. They just haven't done it yet. And I'm just saying, I'm telling you from boots on the ground, where I'm at right now, I'm looking on eBay. I remember the prices as they were 10, 20 years ago and now they're exponentially higher for just some bare bones CB radio from the 70s. And a lot of these are still in great condition and they're in working condition. But you gotta get one now because these things are gonna double in price within the next couple three months. In fact, right now in the area we are here, we've seen an increase in CB traffic and activity because more and more people are trying to put their CBs back in. And I think part of it is just the idea that some people are actually throwing away their cell phones. I mean, they don't need them for most of what they're doing. Plus, people are more people than you might think are paying attention to what they've heard after what happened like on this January 6th thing. Even if they haven't been connected with everybody else in the Patriot effort, they're paying attention to what's going on. And the more that you find out, the more you realize, well, that thing isn't necessarily going to be as useful in the long haul as maybe just good old fashioned radio. And the interesting thing is, I would say half of the people I see that have now installed new radios are younger people. Which is really great because I want to see younger. I'm not talking the half my age. I'm 64 I'm talking there's you know 20 year olds Etc that are actually playing with radio and having some fun with her teenagers which is using it with how that happens you find out it actually is kind of fun because there's All kinds of different things you can do with the equipment The big thing is watch the resale shops not so much for the base stations. I'm lucky I got one base station here recently. That's a month ago But but well a regular 23 channel CVs especially go for nothing They're usually many of them are top-end. They were top-end when they were built. They're very well in many cases American-made You're at it. They still have Japanese components and stuff, but they actually were American-made And that's a big plus unto itself on that note And I know you're not gonna see many but every once in a while they pop out Curtis Mathis was the last American electronics company standing and then finally they went under. But when they did, Curtis Mathis made some of the most industrial grade CB radios, satellite receivers, you can go right down the shopping list and especially the last models. They were all large format solid state. They're easy to fix. They're very user friendly. And again, not hard to figure out. So for everybody out there, if you see anything that says Curtis Mathis on it, you might want to grab it. And if nothing else, this is something to think about. If I'm building things or have to fix something, I may not be able to buy the parts, but I can scavenge them off a tech heavy piece of equipment. And that's what you're looking at with some of the stuff. Maybe it's not pretty, but all the parts are there and it's not wet. Okay, the thing actually is in decent shape, but maybe it's been beat up a bit. Guess what? The parts on board are priceless now. They're not replaceable. This is gonna become a fact more and more. Here's the other thing, you guys gotta remember is everybody becomes more of an idiot stick about trying to pilfer crap to make a few pennies. Scrap has gone up. You're gonna see a whole bunch of stuff destroyed. Somebody just told me, we were just talking about tools. Some of you said this. He goes, man, you wouldn't believe the toolbox is coming in. to some of these scrap yards. Now, the smart people are carrying this stuff away again. But still it's the idea that the idiot sticks don't have a clue. Electronic equipment is the same way. So it would be who of you if you've got a place, electronics location that actually sells what they receive to go every once in a while over there. And if you can make a deal even with the guy that's running the place, there's a couple places we have towards Ipsy. Hey, if you run into any of these items and you give them a short list, If you just put them off to the side, you tell us what you want for them, we'll buy them. Yeah, you know, it's amazing. It was fascinating because the thieves are doing this. Uh, war, let's just put it this way. We don't know. It could be just somebody that's the idiot relative to somebody who had a whole garage full of tools. Well, it takes a long time to sell them. Oh, I'm just going to scrap them. Cause I did buy from a guy that, uh, this last weekend I bought from a guy that, uh, that's what he does. He works in a scrap yard and he has a barn full of stuff. And it's like he said, you wouldn't believe what comes into this place now. So there were four or five Snap-On or other toolboxes he had lined up and full of tools, but of course he was selling the tools separate. And some of these things are just irreplaceable. I would never go and buy them. I just wouldn't spend that kind of money with their worth. But when somebody's putting them for a dollar, a dollar an item on a table and you get a bag full of them, guess what? And he made money the way he was selling them. So again, the radio technology especially is a priority. This is Communications Tuesday. And by the way, we've got to cut out for a minute. We are at the top of the hour also. Everybody stay right where you are. Todd, you all set? Good. Okay. Uh, bless. The figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat. And speaking low to me, he said, We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame, Satan's number, and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Both sons of the Republic arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and each God given right. And pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each god-given right, we only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep, and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, dill the land of the free? Ladies and gentlemen, this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report time, our currently one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, east, northeast and south. Ladies and gentlemen, you were listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org, and we are on AM&FM micro stations, CB base stations, and UltraNet hallmark, and Golden Spike technologies east and west of the Mississippi, along with Alaska. Good. afternoon to all of our friends out there and lower 49 including the great state of Jeff Shawnwood, Conus, the outlying states and provinces. And of course it is. Well, it's communications Tuesday. It is the 7th of June. It is the 14th year of open obvious and pissing in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2022 older calendar. Give it all she's good, Captain. And 2022 battle for the Republic, the dance of swords. Make sure it's well oiled, make sure it's sharpened, and master the trade. Anyway, again, Todd brought up the whole thing about CB, you CBs. And again, thank you. I will point out one of the things I've run into for 80 cents apiece. I've got a resale shop. If you buy 10 items, it's 20% less. So instead of a dollar an item, it's 80 cents an item. And I've been getting a lot of CB radios. In fact, any CB radios you put into the one building, I grab every one of them or any antennas or any coax in bubbles, which I've been getting quite a bit of. Now I got to start sorting again. I've got it piled up. Actually, I put them in barrels like everything now. Barrels are wonderful things because you at least know all the stuff you're looking for is in that barrel, okay? But I would point out, as was mentioned, chimneys. Not just chimneys, but a lot of houses have tri-masts for the old, originally it was for the rotary control directional television antennas. It was really big in the 70s and into the early 80s. It dropped off, but then many people who wanted to do Yagi antenna work really, really, really wanted those rotary antenna units because they were built to last. They were built to stay in the environment outside and they can handle the weight of any number of other pieces of equipment that you might mount up there on that tower. Now, with the chimney, well, 90% of the older houses out there, although some people have already cut the old ones off, the old old ones, but many chimneys have, as is pointed out, a mast or a little mono mast with a couple of fixtures that go right on the corner of the chimney. They're strapped into place or sturdy. And for mounting your CB antenna, that will work just fine. In fact, if you go take a look at what you got up there, if you want to take down the radio antenna you've got, or forgive me, television antenna, you can. Some cases it already is. But you might just leave that up there and extend by another length or two, another couple of extension pipes. the top of the antenna array, just leave it at the original where it is. It's not going to interfere with signal, but it might create an interesting ground plane. because most all of these TV antennas were directional collectors. Okay, so they have a series of flats and a series of tines that are obviously dispersed, you know, so that they would do a better job of compensating for the variance in the signal as it's received from a certain location. And the idea is that between all the different collectors sending the signal down the line, that you would get a more efficient and reliable image or and sound down at the operating end where the signal is translated. Okay. Now, consider that if your CB antenna is above that, you're not using it for a TV antenna, because trust me, if you put a CB antenna on top of any other antenna array like that, when you mic up, well, you're going to, especially with an Antron or something comparable, any kind of omnidirectional antenna, you're going to send signals slash load back down that antenna if something else is hooked up, and you're going to be hearing what you say through the television speaker in no time, and maybe the stereo's that. Okay, so as long as you're not using the antenna, you could leave it in place and experiment. You never know. It might work well. And if it's auto rotary control, I've not had time to pedal too much with this. We just typically have what's called abandoned in place. Don't do any more work than you have to. What you do is you build up beyond and take advantage of what's already there. But if the antenna needs to come down, don't trash it because those antennas can be reconfigured. You can use all the components of a television antenna to build, for instance, 800 meg Yagi antennas for your cell phones. They're not nowhere near as large and in fact with the typical larger television collector arrays, you know We're out there. You probably got enough antenna material to do anywhere from five to eight 800 meg antennas What's available and almost every all your components are right there. You're gonna have to get you know, buy some fasteners But everything that you need is right there on hand off of the old antenna And all you do is decide what you want to hook it up and how you want to utilize it either as a mobile on the ground or you can put that on a mast and with a rotary control you can actually zero out to the horizon on different 800 megs, you know 800 meg cell phone towers and totally deceive the cell phone system because you're not omnidirectional so they can get pings off different towers. your signal would only go to that 800 meg, that tower that you pointed at and no other. It's kinda cool because it messes up all the tracking technology, what they assume they're doing, what they think you're going to do with it as opposed to how you're going to change things, okay? With the CB the other thing here don't forget drip lines when you're doing your coax you don't just run a coax straight up when you get up to the top you run what looks like a little pass to create a drip drip point so that moisture coming down from above hits that little looks like a drain pipe roll. This is the best way to think about it, like an S drain pipe. The idea behind this is that moisture collects on the bottom of that little loop and then drops down to the ground and it does not collect or commute along your power line or your, in this case, your antenna line, and then transmit or translate over to a fixture and compromise it. Eventually, If moisture continues to attack a fixture or a location on a line with a connector, water will eventually win. Always remember that moisture is patient, but it will just keep, you know, the waves of the ocean. Think about it that way. In this case, drip, drip, drip Chinese water torture. So we want to make sure we do as much as we can to protect from moisture, moisture, electricity. Don't go together and we'll compromise a single lot of places where you have satellite, where you have cell phone problems, where your cell phone, you know, every time the weather changes, your cell phone starts to act up. That's because somewhere in the system. Not at your end, it's somewhere with the operators. A connection, a satellite uplink, a system, whatever they're using. A microwave uplink, somewhere there's a compromised line and maybe that the insulation is cracked. It could be that the fixture is in the wrong place. And whenever it rains and you get that weather change, that's why your satellite feed goes haywire on a specific series of channels. That particular satellite downlink collector is compromised. The same is true with your cell phone system. It's why they act up during weather conditions. Doesn't have anything to do with the quality of the unit except for lack of PM and I guarantee even the companies that you are working with in your area They even know that that's happening, but they're lazier the day is longer. They've been told don't spend the money on it Because they know that well every time the weather starts up you think it complaints about service activities satellite systems do so do cell phone systems They know what the problem is. They just aren't gonna get up off the dead ass and go find it Now it really shouldn't be that hard because like with satellite as I pointed out it's usually a set number of channels which will tell you that that's like receiver antenna number four. Now if we go out and look at receiver antenna number four and I check the casings and I check the drip points and I check all the connectors, I'll find some place that probably is either oxidized or has a rust or oxidation mark around the area of activity and I can find pretty quick without a whole lot of digging where the problem is and my customers would be happy. But if they do that, then the guy has got to be paid to do that and not do something else. And they're not that worried about the customers 99% of the time they didn't have a cool about how to run the business in the first place, which is what happens over and over again. And as we get into planet crap, who 20 you know the 21st century 21st century planet crap who this is the norm, not the exception. Failure to perform proper follow-up maintenance or PM maintenance so that it doesn't happen. Example, in a satellite farm, there's only maybe 10, 15, sometimes no more than 20 fixtures that run the signal back to the main house. Now, there's only so many locations you have to check, and if you do PM, you can identify whether or not you have something that needs to be replaced, and before it becomes a problem. You can either reconfigure it so that, or clean it up or do whatever so that it can be used or you replace it. Cell phone tower operation is the exact same way. They've gotten so stinkin' lazy. And again, they don't care. You're gonna pay, you're just gonna pay. You're gonna pay. Yeah, you know, it's crappy, but you'll find any number of ways to justify for the people you're doing business with anything other than that they're not doing their job. But typically, 99% of the time, they're simply not doing the job. That's all there is to it. When it's yours and personal, you should be better than that. And especially if you're with a Patriot effort, we got the thinkers, they got the stinkers, act accordingly. Another couple things here about CB real quick is the base stations. Very user-friendly towards maintenance, but I remember again read if you have manuals read them I know that they're not exciting, but you never know what you might pick up from a manual based on the piece of equipment you're using you know the Number two is search YouTube and bit shoot There's all kinds of channels doing all kinds of things And amazingly enough, the communications geeks were very quick to embrace YouTube and bitch shoot for tutorials. And so you will probably have a dozen, if not 100 different videos done over the last decade. Many of them still on the same YouTube channel they started with that have to do with radio maintenance and understanding radio technology and where issues pop up. Most of the maintenance is easily done by you, but you have to constantly be thinking. It's like when I tell you that you need to sharpen something, that doesn't mean break out the wheel grinder and watch sparks fly. Okay, when we are tuning something, we are going to lap when we are not gonna grind. When you're looking at electronics, most of it is air. But there are other issues that may need to be addressed that a combination of other cleaning tools, will settle and it's not typically a component that's failing you, it's just the dust of ages. Lint and dust bunnies and the dust of ages can create little circuits and there's moisture in the air. They're not complete, but when there's more moisture, they create fuzz, static, and may even completely disrupt the operation of the equipment. The one nice thing about newer to older stuff, it's much easier and user friendly to fix. The newer stuff, if it goes bad, it goes south, there's too much micro-junk involved, it's dead. That doesn't mean you throw it away because once you start having a bunch of dead little ones, it's like I was talking about the Bao Fiangs, how many people are actually gonna work on the Bao Fiangs? Not very many probably. But for those that do, if you can start collecting the derelict, somebody drops something, somebody breaks something, they run over something, or again, dropping in water is so embarrassing. rather than just chucking them, hand them off to your radio tech and start putting together a parts box. Now some of the stuff, like I was mentioning, especially the more microprocessors there are and especially the micro micro processing systems that are on board, they're junk the moment something goes wrong. There's not a whole lot they can even do. I doubt you're gonna do any microscopic soldering. You can I guess in the long run we might make a whole business or industry out of that. But this is why old earth American or older technology from a few decades back is still very very very very useful. I will remind you I have my favorite little new radio here a little Motorola with six transistors six condoms transistors and a very big deal back in the day but you know what it runs beautifully it's chrome looks like it you know it's it basically is a knockoff of a like a small tiny version of the Star Trek communicator or not communicator the tricorder from the original series and it's Motorola produced or Motorola flag but it's made in Japan now China made in Japan in New Paul And it is a very useful little receiver. It's very strong, very clean, no background noise. And amazingly enough, it's as old. Well, it's not quite as old as I am, but it's pretty close. I was lucky to find that. I've got it right in front of me right now. It's just cool because I can remember it was like, man, I could buy a Motorola, but I'm going to get the cheapy one from Hong Kong because it's like only like a dollar 25 and the Motorola is like $9. Okay. But it's a good radio. Oh man. So anyway, there's a lot of stuff out there. By the way, the motor rollers, a lot of them are all made over in China now. Not all of them. They're just a percentage. Same class of radios as the Bao Fyengs. Other things, again, spare parts, spare parts. How about tools? Nice little packages of things that are popping up over a Dollar Tree. There's this little corn that is, it's a little plastic bubble about the length of about the length of your index finger. It's about one inch in diameter. It has a clear cover, but it's a micro screwdriver set. Now before, I love the older style or the traditional style, individual micro with a pivot pad so you can hold your hand to it, move it with your fingers. You had Phillips and Hex and regular straight blade, etc. But these little units are $1.25 a piece, come with a whole pile of heads. I bought six of them right away and put them in all the little toolboxes for all of the electronics. Simply because it's another useful little machine that doesn't do it fast, does it fast enough, but it doesn't do it fast like with a drill. Everybody's used to that lately. I understand, but sometimes that's not a good idea. You need to work something apart. And you want to go slow to make sure you don't do any damage. So, and some things you just can't get into with electronics. So with a drill. So this is a very useful tool. They're over a dollar tree. They have a yellow plastic base, a clear shell, and there's like a layer cake. There are tiers of the little heads going right up to the center. And of course the handle is in the middle. Everything is where you can see it. The neat thing is it's very compact and it can fit into a lot of different situations. It's something I would recommend for the kind of electronic work, you know, you might be doing down the road. Yes, you can get more precision and cool stuff. I go to the resale shops for that because I got brand new equipment, brand new old inventory stuff that cost, I know, top dollar arm and a leg. And I pick it up for, like I said, 80 cents an item for maybe a whole bundle of something. That's what you need to find a watering hole like that and clean it out. Okay, solder guns, don't forget, solder irons and solder guns. Now, solder irons, remember you may have to go all the way down to micro tip. If you're gonna do flush face circuitry, and there is a lot of flush face circuitry out there that you can work with, and the components are actually available and they're ridiculous, they're giveaway prices. But flush face circuitry work is patience, extraordinaire. However, a Simple solder, solder pencil will get the job done. You can be more sophisticated with solder suckers and all the other fun stuff, but that's not absolutely necessary. If you pay attention and know what you're doing, it'll all get to where it needs to be, you know, quickly enough. And everybody's happy, as they say. Just one, one step, step at a time. Time goes slow. Anyway, let's see, we're almost to the bottom of the hour. And I'll tell you what, we haven't had a music request yet. I'm gonna do my music request, because this is still one of my favorite songs. UDO, I give as good as I get. And with what's going on right now and what they're yapping about, how they want to come after the guns, okay, not a problem. You want to try it? You can go right ahead. We'll find out what happens. But as far as the beating on the issue, just on it. We'll be back. UDO, I give as good as I get. We are back, UDO. I give as good as I get. Make the mistake about it. And again, I'm not interested in anybody being my slave. But if you think you're going to enslave me, I will destroy you. Or as Malcolm Reynolds said in one of my favorite episodes, I swear by pretty little bonnet, I will end you. My little, my pretty little flowered bonnet, I will end you. It's that simple, so. Anyway, it is a beautiful week weekend. Actually, we've had rain, a little bit of rain on and off. Perfect combination. Plants are kicking off. We have had other other farmers that are destroying their crops. That's not good, but I haven't had a chance to talk to those people. And again, it's in passing thing. They're either getting paid to do it or whatever. But mostly what we see is that the wheat crop, the winter wheat rather than harvesting, they're destroying. And there's something going on there, obviously, that's from the regime. The leftists are in motion. Remember, they're planning on trying to starve the population out here. I cannot stress enough that you, again, keep putting food reserves on the shelf. I don't care what you store, it doesn't make any difference. everything counts. So although beans and rice are basics, there's still some really great items you can find over at Dollar Tree. Oh, and by the way, Dollar General and the other Dollar Store are all associated with Dollar Tree. And here's what's really fascinating. They still have the dollar items that Dollar Tree has, but now charges the dollar 25 for a few cherry pick from the different dollar stores. example I just mentioned, beans, guys, if you go to Dollar General and the other dollar, oh come on, we have a couple different ones here, but they're all affiliated and they actually use all of the Dollar Tree banners for the items that are a dollar. And for instance, one of those- I think family dollars when you're thinking about Mark, family dollars. Family dollars, thank you, yes, that's the other one. And what's interesting is they have dollar sections and the one pound bags of beans that are now $1.25 over at Dollar Tree are still $1 at the other two stores. So it behooves you to check out, see what they have. Some things are $1, but they're smaller. But the one pound bag of beans is a one pound bag of beans and the cans of food items are the same size cans for $1 as opposed to $1.25. Well guys, that's 25% less. Or it's 25% more, let's put it that way, if you bought it at Dollar Tree. Doesn't mean that there aren't things that aren't useful there and still reasonably priced. But and some things that have come back I've noticed because they have raised the price to $1.25 One of the things we have here in this area are green ripe olives $1.25 a can but they're the larger can not not really big cans But they're the full-size cans of the same size as the traditional black olives so for a change up the green ripe olives and they're pitted but they're not filled with pimento or anything. They're another breed of olive. They're very tasty. They're great for especially doing salads. If you've got, for instance, macaroni stored or if you have noodle stored, you can make a lot of different pasta salads and using all of the different items. We have dried tomatoes that we've done, dried mushrooms. We've got peppers, jalapeno peppers, habanero peppers, bell peppers, which some people can't have. But if you want to make a really kick butt salad off the shelf, having those olives in there and a can of tuna or whatever, or light chicken, you can make a phenomenal change up meal all from dried goods and or wet canned goods off the shelf. And that's how you need to be thinking. You need to experiment now. Be ready to be able to pull and do what you need to off the shelf and make things exciting, you know, interesting. It doesn't have to be just a plop. Here's a boil. Spoon of beans, plop. Here's a spoon of rice. And congratulations. Here's your three fish heads. We don't need to. We will do that eventually. But for the longer time, if we're smart, if you think ahead, There's a lot of creative work that can be done, but you need to be thinking now. You watch. I'll flip you for the possum, but. Yeah, well, it's got more meat. Yum, yum, yum, yum. Yeah, but everything gets eaten when you're starving. Everything. Guys, just another reminder. Lentils, superior nutrition and superior cookability, especially if you don't have a lot of heat source to rehydrate and get them chewable. or sprouting the dollar stores have the coheal coheal. C O J I L L O coheal with an A and whatever. I'm really tiny lentils. I think they, I haven't tried sprouting yet. That's on my list of things to do this week. I'm going to see if they've a rated it or whether they're actually sproutable. If they're sproutable, huge nutrition, 400% increased nutrition over the unsprouded ones. Being that lentils are small and flat, it doesn't take a whole, I mean they cook a lot faster than rice, let's put it that way. Whereas, you gotta soak them and you gotta boil them for hours. So, it's up there. So they're very user friendly, especially for people who may not have that much skill at cooking or if you're counting out of the people or you have younger people that have no experience and you may have to leave them with certain resources or give them certain resources. You know that they'll figure out how to make it work and it's least likely that something is going to be a failure. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Just think about how you tailor your food reserves when it comes to stuff you may be using for traveling with the people that you are, you know, where you're working with or people that are, you know, family members. One of the things I always did as the, as our children were growing up is I tailored their backpack, their emergency packs, so that there was nothing they needed to do. back when the MREs, the original MREs were out, they had the potato patties, the meat patties, freeze dried fruits, that all went into their kit. In fact, their backpack was stuffed. It was solid. Any place where I could squeeze more in, I did. But the logic was, if they got separated, all they had to do was rip a package open, eat it, and it was done. Lots of the patent, you know, the combat crackers with cheese and with peanut butter and jelly, because they used to get that all the time in the MRE pouches, just, you know, tonnage back from, you know, going on, going into operations. The idea behind that is that it would, there wouldn't have to be any thought process or even prep time. They didn't have to boil water if they didn't know what to do or if they didn't have it or couldn't. But if you just rip the pouch open and eat it, you got water, you've got food, and again tasty stuff too. The potato patties were like a McDonald's hash brown. The meat patties were as good as anything you could ask for, pork or beef. And then you had the crackers and of course other items too. And there were cakes. I always threw stuff in the cakes and there was a good fillers. For the stomach, fill the void. But it's all stuff they could easily rip open and eat. The more sophisticated menu technology I carry, or Nancy carried, or anybody else who's an adult and can carry more weight and knows what to do. as they were developed and knew a war about what was going on, then we adjusted accordingly. But still prioritized the freeze dried towards them. And if, of course, I'd had any older people, freeze dried would have been prioritized to the older members because they can't carry as much. So the idea is to give them the same calorie potential with less weight carried. And that's where the freeze dried foods especially came in very handy. And since I was getting them from the donor to the destruction, basically we were on training operations. Then we ended up with many, many, many, many cases of the stuff discarded. And we made sure, I made sure none of that went to waste. Another thing here real quick, coffee, which has done some ridiculous jumps. Dollar Tree still has their $1.25 a pouch, eight ounce pouches of regular coffee, but they also have an espresso, a yellow package. It is the best price for an eight ounce package of coffee you can get. I would recommend carrying that in the field. Reason, it's a finer cut, it is an espresso. One of the things you can do is heat up a cup of a cup, a canteen cup of water. I know we've talked about instant, but you can also take the espresso coffee like that. Take a third of a spoon, put it in the canteen cup, stir it and let it activate. And while it's not instant coffee, although it's by God, it'd probably dry everybody. It hasn't had a cup of coffee for weeks. The smell would barely be phenomenal. The freeze dried is fine, but again, something to consider is it's one of those pick me up psychological things. It's a good promotional if you've got somebody you're talking to. and you're trying to make him relax and get comfortable and start to think about what it is that they experienced or saw. Remember interrogation works that way. De-briefing works that way. Hey, here, cup of coffee. Oh, that's a real cup of coffee. Yeah, yeah, it is. Go ahead, take your time. Remember, guys, think ahead. The other thing here, creamers, sugars, salts, all of that, should always be distributing that amongst all your people. Remember that if you don't have foil pouch pack systems, Ziploc bags will save you a lot of misery and there's all kinds of different quality of bags out there. You can go to Dollar Tree or any of the other dollar stores and get a discount price on something. If you look, there's always something that's the odd man out. Take advantage of that, especially if it's some kind of deal with more bags per box. Well, good. That's more stuff you have. More stuff is always better in that case. It's more gooder. Also, and again, I mentioned, we were talking about communications. I've mentioned this many times. Any coiled wire discards, shortcuts, I've been getting, I won't say miles, but I've been getting massive bundles of pulled wire copper. that they over pulled and they cut the difference off and just roll it up and chuck it. The thing is, it's enough to wire a house by the time you're done, but also remember we can do a lot of other things with copper wire if we have it, not the least of which could be scrap. But what's most important is rather than scrap, it is a part of your inventory for other work that may need to be done down the road, not the least of which is antenna wire. Don't forget that. So there's a lot of different things that are useful. If you run into stuff like that, remember you can trade later. One of your best bets is get a tote by the cheapest tote you can and separate things. That's what I can, I use the totes, barrels, whatever. But nothing goes to waste right now. Everything is going to do, the plan is everything is going to be used. Everything is going to be used, period. There's too many, too many things on the horizon that are obvious. And again, I also am good at improvising, adapting and overcoming. Any of you can develop that skill, but you gotta be thinking about how can I make this work for me? Cardstock is something that right now, it's starting to get leaner and meaner as far as some of the things out there that just used to be everywhere and are not now. I've mentioned this before when the depression hit, something as simple as paper. simply isn't thrown away anymore. You know, wag when you use it to burn in the fireplace? No, if you have a piece of paper and the other side's not been used, you better steer. You're going to start thinking ahead because there isn't, there are only so many paper mills in the country. A lot of the activity has been shifted overseas. The locations that are out there are going to be very susceptible to government eradication or shutdown and you guarantee with the eco freaks and all the rest of the Fruit Loops, they will do it to hurt the American economy. They're already doing it. So papers, cardboards, or I should say card stock. even different types of containers simply because they're useful for packaging and transporting if something needs to be moved. Brakeables being the most common. Don't forget that, well, you know, like the styrofoam, I will say styrene type wrapping material that is, it's a flexible, almost rubbery type styrofoam. You know, that's hobo insulation, right? for those who aren't familiar, you may have found over a few years old as I am, you can pretty well figure who's been where when you go out in the middle of nowhere, you find a campfire that wasn't eliminated or was not eradicated, it was just left where it was done, burned down, and you got somebody ask me, what the hell is all this styrofoam doing out here, this styrofoam wrap? I said, well, that's a sleeping bag. And they're like, what? No way. It's like, yeah, look, one end's dirty. Notice how it's all kind of wrapped up and it's not mummified because they got back out of it. But you'll notice one end's dirty and the other end is relatively clean. Well, you get your boots right into the one end, wrap yourself up in it. And no, you don't even use a tent where if what you do is take another piece and cover yourself with that. And amazingly enough, it's quite durable. It is very effective for, you know, again, keeping pretty much all the calories in and keeping both the cold and moisture out. So just something to think about there. It's a nice, cheap way to have something even rolled up and in the vehicle if you're poor or even you might need spares or maybe it's just all you got. It can be used for a lot more than just wrapping up and keeping things from being broken or dampening them while they're in a transport box or whatever. Usually you run into rolls of the stuff or partial rolls. The same is true with a wrapped plastic. Wrapped plastic can do the same thing and make temporary shelters with. I'll tell you what, go to YouTube. There's all kinds of imagery and basically they don't necessarily admit it, but where the base technology came from or who got the idea for doing this first were the hobos, were the street people. And more traditionally the hobo in that it's the mobile transient, not somebody who's sitting in your front yard parked out in front of the school and putting up a pop-up tent. The people that were using these ideas were people who were usually traveling across the country. They know where to look for and get really used to the idea because they didn't really have to be anywhere at a particular time. and there are hobo encampments all across this country, especially off most of the expressways. A lot of you don't even realize you've gone by them. The farther south you go, the more of them there are. If there's like a gas station pod, you come off the expressway if you look, and if there's any like off the cloverleaf or whatever, there's a lot of trees or woods, pay attention to look to see if you see pathways coming out of that large wooded area that's got a lot of pines and low brush. If you pay attention sometimes you look off in the woods you'll see there even as a more than one person back there those literally are Transient's like hobo encampments that are across the nation and then sometimes a month later you go by and they've chased them all out and cut all the trees down Yes, or at least cut all the brush down you cut all the brush out so you can see from one end of the other yeah or they've whacked every tree down. They actually quite a few of these were on the expressways along I-94 and they're so extensive but you know they were kind of like where do all the street people go at the end of the day? Well they don't go to the government buildings, they don't go to the hack operations like in an arbor there were several colonies around the outlying area, a couple of them, for instance, one of the cloverleafs for Ann Arbor Saline Road, good point there. Ann Arbor Saline Road, they went in because they had 50, 60 people encamped with complete little housing operations set up with, you know, 10 inch and plastic and scavenged wood that they went in and they had to, they defoliated these cloverleafs, the inside of the cloverleaf, the circle. where they, you know, you come off the ramp. Those areas had built up over 30, 40, 50 years. They had good, both low, medium, and high overhead cover. They went and they killed all the lower cover, trimmed off all the branches for the medium cover, making everything accessible to, you know, be able to visualize to see what's going on. But up until that point, they didn't mess anything up. They didn't beat anything up. They didn't damage stuff. They were smart. The outlying area, there was no discernible way. There was no junk. There was no trash. There was no buildup of debris. But there were a few trails because they were using the most common paths out. But they were also smart in that they made sure that their exit paths and entrance paths were oblique. to the center of the area. So you come in on one angle, turn left or right in the opposite direction on another angle, and that gets you into the inner sanctum, so to speak, where everybody was camped over, you know, what, five, six acres. You know, everybody had their space. Nobody was bothering anybody, but they decided that this was unacceptable, don't you know? But, well, whatever. The idea here is, again, remember, a lot of times you pass by stuff and I've said this many times, people are not attentive. If you pay attention and constantly you're scanning with your eyes and look to details, you never know what you're gonna run into. But that hobo camping technology, guys, that stuff is laying all around behind every appliance store and big lot and even dollar trees. If all it sales cardboard works as well, but that that styrene the rolled padding is premium in priority premium grade. By the way, you can also roll it up and take it with you if you're worried about not making contact with anybody. If you were trying to improvise, adapt and overcome in the field. And I will remind you that if you do that, you don't make contact with anybody that fewer people make contact with and less likely someone's gonna realize you might be somebody of interest. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. So if you get out the back door bare ass naked, Alicia still have an idea what to do. Go ahead, call the ship in there. Hey, this is Carl Virginia. I just wanna bring something up in case I forget later. On Sports News Guide, they've got some check. Tim suits is a six pack of them for ridiculously cheap. It's like $18 something like that. And in an OD green color, it's a check Tim suits. Definitely a good buy there. Are they slick side or are they cloth? It could be like a, it looks like a, like a rubberized material or vinyl type material. Yes. Okay. And again, about $18 a set. $18 for what? $18 for $6? $18 for $6. That's $6. That's $18. Again, I'll take a look at it. We're going to be coming up on the top here in a minute. In fact, if you do think, okay, here's the question. Do they come with the booties? Do they come with anything or just the top? Is it a one piece or is it top and bottom? I believe it's top and bottom and the guy in the picture is wearing the booties. So it does come with a booty. It might even have the other items because if it's a check, remember they even had a cover pouch for the mags, mag pouch for the single AK mag pouch for a quad, a bayonet cover, and there were a few other items that came with that too. So if all those items are there, it'd be kind of cool. Sometimes they don't even list them even though they're with the item. So again, those are worthwhile. And if they're slick side, That's leaning more towards, again, viscous distribution technology, but also for nuclear, because the rubberized material fallout will slop off. It's not gonna stick. So the only consideration with conventional NBC suits is they are filtration system, but if anything lands on them, you have to brush the stuff off. Whereas the slick side, typically again, material hesitancy just fall off on its own, especially when you're in motion. So little little idea there that might be a good idea to invest in. And if you do not have chem suits, that's not a bad buy and the check units will work just fine. Remember the checks are the ones we hired when we went in Desert Dust Part 2. The adventure continues as the allied NBC specialists. That's why we want to have the lock-ins there. I just checked them out. They are the same suits that I brought to the meeting that time. Well, for as long as they're there, then I would take advantage of it because that price is really, well, and especially since everybody's talking about World War III, we might as well be fashionable and come to the affair properly dressed. Wouldn't you think? And I'm being facetious, you know, I believe we should be properly dressed no matter what. But six sets for $18 is very reasonable. And guys, if you have not covered your nuclear, biological and chemical threat issues, then that is a way to tick off that item. Still need a camp, still need a gas mask. May need a hood for the gas mask. Oh wait a minute, these might come, these come with a hood, don't they? I'm pretty sure the Czech ones do. Yeah, it's a rain poncho type of hood. Exactly. Okay, good, good. So that would that would also work if need be if you don't have a in the other any other cover. In fact, even if you did have the other hood, you still apply this hood to offer another layer of protection. Always remember that. But it could be used as a primary if that's what you've got. And again, still going to offer a lot more than harsh language. And I wish I had. So I'm going to be 15 years ago. I'll be almost 15 years ago. I brought those and. I think I paid $4 apiece for them then. So this is definitely a good, good bride price was. Well, it probably means the checks are moving a few items because they're buying new stuff. You know what I mean, guys? Everybody's getting ready for World War III as we were just joking, but not because everybody's been yapping about World War III. Well, they got to, you know, they're making money. They're moving stuff out the back door so they can bring things up into the front door when it comes down to. Hey Mark, I got another... Yeah, so also on Sportsman's Guide they've got an Italian set tube Kevlar helmet, same thing as the Pazget. For $22, the catch is it has no harness, no chin strap, none of that. Now if you have one that you could take off of like one of those training helmets, that you got for super cheap or maybe even out of like a skateboard or bicycle helmet perhaps, that might work. So anyway, you can't lock them up for 22 bucks. And again, is that over in the deals section or just brand new items they brought in? It was in the deal because they were pushing the military surplus stuff, but if you just go to military surplus, it would just search for Italian helmets and it'll pop up. Right, or if you want to see what else matches with the Italian, you go Italian surplus. Italian military surplus, it'll pop up in the inventory with all the other stuff you might find comparable items. They also have Italian front plates and back plates for body armor. And they're $35 apiece and you can't beat the price.

And don't forget, also, see what they have over at gunpartscorp.com because they have been adding a lot of unique items recently. So you might find the harness even sitting over there or one that would work. If you already have a CEP-2 helmet, go ahead. What about the fake Kevlar CEP-2s? Couldn't you take the harness out of those if you needed to? Yeah, I think we could. They are screwed in. They're actually basically built the same as a standard harness. The other thing is, okay, wait a minute. Hold on, they might still have them. Over at militaryuniformsupply.com. They had the pass get replacement helmet harness for a dollar brand new Now Coleman's might have them also But the military uniform supply had them in hands. We haven't been there in a little while I'm gonna check that as soon as we get off the air But for a dollar or a dollar 25 or a dollar 50, that's a brand new harness The sun's the sun's the liberty British kept the cum wasn't as many as it was a while ago Once more and they began to run down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico Took a side of cotton mills and grew into a pool Once more and they began to run down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico We fire as many as it was down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico It's the night we'll make sure as we whisk to tie back the hat and stay with you here. It becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them. A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it and to institute new government. Laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness. Prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes. And accordingly, all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable than to write themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let's fast be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained. And when so suspended... He has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable only to tyrants. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time after such dissolutions to cause others to be elected. whereby the legislative powers incapable of annihilation have returned to the people at large for their exercise. The state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without and convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states. For that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither. and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us in times of peace standing armies without the consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power. He is combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution and unacknowledged by our laws. giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation. For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us. For protecting them by a mock trial from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states. For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world. For imposing taxes on us without our consent. For depriving us in many cases of the benefits of trial by jury. For transporting us beyond seas. to be tried for pretended offenses, for abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies. for taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments. For suspending our own legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated government here by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burned our towns and destroyed the lives of our people. He is, at this time, transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny. Already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy, scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy of the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us. and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms. Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our immigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity. And we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace, friends. We, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America, in general Congress, assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions. Do in the name and by authority of the good people of these colonies solemnly publish and declare that these united colonies are and of right ought to be free and independent states. That they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown. And that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is and ought to be totally dissolved. And that as free and independent states, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce. And to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do. And... Walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat. And speaking low to me, he said. We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've taken Satan's number you traded in your name You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm And keep our country deep in debt put men of God in jail harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths. They've sworn and your daughters visit doctors So their children won't be born Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Both sons of the republic arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great republic in each god given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch and tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free ladies and gentlemen, this is the evening intelligence report. I'm our kirky One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, northwest, south, southeast, central. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite, want to say hi and thank you to all of our friends out there across the Salton Seas virtually around the globe and even possibly near the Antarctic right now as we speak. We're also in a myriad of communications technologies both inside and outside these United States. And of course it is Tuesday, we should have Larry with us. Do we have Larry there? Just a second. And Larry might be here any minute now so we'll see what happens. It is the 7th of June, it is the 14th year of Open Obvious and in your face Fabian, Socialist and Soviets. Occupation of America with a K, 2022 Old Earth Calendar, 2022 Battle for the Republic, the Dance of Swords. Now there's been a bunch of interesting noise back and forth around... Obviously Washington district of criminals. Unfortunately a sad sack situation across the board. But there's some interesting things. There's been some feathers a fly in here and there in the Congress and in the Senate, etc. Of course the Senate still has to wait but they're yapping now they're going to shove some gun control through recognize and identify any Republicans that vote for any pro gun or freely anti gun. technology here as far as the bills go. And they simply need to be targeted for election ejection, just like they were yapping about Soros putting people in. How is it Soros, who's just one person with a whole, whole gun color, chunk of change can do what he's doing. American people can't figure out how to do the same. Good caller, what do we have? It's Larry. I want to apologize. I got confused last week with the holiday, but today I'm trying to get plants in before it gets dark here. I've got a window. So I'm gonna have to bow out and get these plants in so I've at least got them started, Mark. I was doing the same thing today as a matter of fact. I guess personally, also a bunch of other stuff that was the last ditch thing to do. But I did a bunch of tomatoes today, so I understand. You got to take off? Yeah, that's what I'm doing is tomatoes and peppers. I got to get them in. I've got a cool window here before it gets hot and they start baking off. So I'm going to try and get them in this last hour here. I appreciate that. Go right ahead. Thank you, sir. Thank you, Mark. And again, food production is a priority. A little bit of whatever you can do every day, guys. You don't have to do a lot. But, you know what, a couple of really decent producing tomato plants will keep you in another fruit slash food for a good period of time. And in fact, if you bucket them, which is what I've done with all the tomato plants, the ones that I just got to orphans today, I make sure they're all in containers that are transportable. Every year I do a percentage like that and then a percentage we do in the gardens larger percentage of the gardens, but usually we get the tomatoes that are potted to run all through the winter, if not most of the winter. Last year we had tomatoes until after Christmas coming off and peppers to coming off. Actually until about what January 15th or so and there was a cold spike and the. to open a little curtain on one of the little griddle greenhouse covers and they kind of did the peppers and they can't handle much cold. It was just cool enough wasn't cold but cool enough but still we got our money is worth considering the year. These are all what I mean by orphan plants. We watch for the markdowns you know 50 cents for instead of you know $1.60 or $1.80 or two for the 6 or 8 packs and usually we get a number of them like that. Yeah, well just I can nurse them back. In many cases, they don't have to be nursed back. They just need more dirt right away because they're actually trying to grow. And that's one of the things you can take advantage of. A lot of them are actually promoting, already have buds, they already have even in some cases small bits of fruit on them. I've got one tomato plant I put into a much larger container. that's already got fruit producing on it. So it's going to be an early starter for actually getting something out of the work we've done. But the dirt was free, the containers were free, and I paid 50 cents for the plants. Well, actually 50 cents for six of those little plants and 50 cents for a couple of singles by themselves, but they're bigger as you can imagine, depending on the pot they're in. So just pick a couple of items, peppers, tomatoes, whatever, it helps to give you fresh food and you grew it rather than a greenhouse. Greenhouse is okay. We're going to be doing greenhouse with some of these actually, but better than just greenhouse crop. There's a lot of things you can also develop with the different breeds that are actually monster producers, especially some of the grape and cherry tomato breeds. Don't forget that. Anyway, I tell you what we're gonna do. Edward, we have something here. Brave Congressman, Mox Gary Nadler, after he asked a stupid question in Congress, which pretty much anything that Nadler says is stupid anyway. He has no business being there. He's a complete idiot stick. Of course, it would just be a younger idiot stick that would replace him cuz there'd been another leftist. But if we could, I wanna play this. It's Brave Congressman, this is on YouTube. Brave Congressman Mox Gary Nadler in ADLER after he asks a stupid question in- No, so they all know I too live in Texas. Raised my son, daughter to respect firearms. We shoot them frequently on our property. We shoot semi-automatic weapons on my property. I teach my children how to use them, how to use them safely. I teach them what they're used for, why we have the ability to have firearms. And yes, we use it for hunting. I sunshot his first deer. With the gentleman you have your question? Briefly. Yeah, very question. What do you use semi-automatic weapons for? I use semi-automatic weapons to kill hogs. I use semi-automatic weapons for sport and shooting on our property. But I also have semi-automatic weapons, and I'm getting to the point. Thank you. Because semi-automatic weapon is a weapon that you can use for self-defense. It is a semi-automatic weapon that you can use to defend yourself against home invaders, but also, let's be clear, against tyranny. The gentlelady is talking about the Second Amendment in the context of hunting. as if my rights are reduced in the Constitution to a 410 or a single shot or lever action 22. As if that was what was expressly put forth as how we're supposed to be defending ourselves. Can you yield again? Yeah, let me go ahead and finish my time, sir, unless we want to add more time. Very quickly, questions. I need more time. Will the gentleman give me another 30 seconds? Yes, I'll yield. You said that you could use a semiotic manic weapon to fight tyranny. Sure. You mean you'd use it against American troops? The very exact, we're going to take my time, the very existence of the Second Amendment is designed purposefully to empower the people to be able to resist the force of tyranny used against them to step over their natural rights given to them by God. That is why the Second Amendment exists. That is very specifically why the Second Amendment exists. Let's be very clear about that. Let's rewind the clock a little bit as I know at least several justices have written in Supreme Court opinions, but about what life looked like in the 19th century and what the government was doing to remove the ability of either slave owners or importantly freed blacks or importantly Wipes who even stood up in defense of blacks or against slavery and the efforts by the South and the efforts by the strong arm of government to remove their ability to have firearms. That is an absolute undeniable documented historic fact in our country. As written by Robert Verbruggan in National Review, and I'm happy to submit this to the record without objection, He writes, Two slave rebellions in 1820 stoked white spheres and in response many legislatures amended their laws prohibiting slaves from carrying firearms to apply the prohibition to free blacks as well. When the government, and he writes further, and I agree with this, when the government has the ability to forbid gun ownership. It has the ability to render groups it disliked helpless to defend themselves, regardless of whether modern gun control accomplishes its purpose of reducing crime. And for the record, there is no evidence it does. And I agree with that as well. This is so inherent to the very conversation we're having. My colleagues on the other side of the aisle just blithely dismissed due process. A former judge even. saying, oh, arguments about due process, you have the opportunity to be heard after your rights have been taken away. That's the key issue here. We are absolutely destroying the bedrock principle that your rights are given to you by God and that you can't just have to go to the government to ask permission to exercise those rights. And when you do that... Would the gentleman yield for a question? Could I ask Mr. Roy a question? Would you yield for a second? I need to finish on my time. I already have a few seconds left over from the chairman. I'm happy to engage with you in colloquies later. And I would only just I would point out that that my colleague from Maryland again just sort of rolled over the fact that it was very expressed in the Supreme Court's ruling that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm Unconnected with service in a militia my colleagues like to continue continually try to connect that to militia service But we all know that what a militia looked like in 1775 in 1776 I appreciate that the chairman gave me a little extra time in light of our exchange and questioning I yield back. The gentleman yields back for it. The fact is, Democrats don't want Americans to own guns. In August 2019, a television interviewer asked then candidate Joe Biden the following question. So to gun owners out there who say, well, a Biden administration means they're going to come for my guns. Biden's response, bingo. They're not hiding it. So it's no surprise that this administration and that Democrats in Congress and anti-gun groups are all pushing red flag laws that will take guns from law-abiding Americans. In Connecticut, for example, 32% of confiscation orders are overturned when a judge finally hears both sides of the story. And this is after the government has already seized the firearm. This means that one out of every three people who has his or her firearms seized by the government under Connecticut's red flag law, is an innocent law-abiding citizen. That is an unacceptable rate of protecting constitutional rights. One reason that the error rate is so high is that most of these laws don't even purport to satisfy due process. Every red flag law currently in operation permits the government to order the confiscation of firearms without notice to the individual, and a hearing only to follow at some later time. Ex parte hearings may be necessary in some extreme cases, but they shouldn't be the default standard. Moreover, in many states, the word of a spurned romantic partner or disgruntled coworker is sufficient to meet the watered-down standard for unilateral, albeit temporary, deprivation of Second Amendment rights. Put simply, red flag laws empower the government to take firearms first and ask questions later. Often, much, much later. No one would tolerate these procedures to deprive Americans of any of... their other fundamental constitutional rights. But Democrats don't care that law abiding Americans lose their rights under these laws because they don't believe in the Second Amendment and the right to self defense. In a shockingly candid statement, President Biden's nominee to lead the ATF told one of the witnesses testifying today that it didn't matter if a law abiding citizen lost their rights due to red flag laws. because the disarmed victims can just purchase a replica gun to scare criminals away. That is an answer that reveals a contempt for the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. And it's dangerous. The Second Amendment is not about hunting. It's not about recreational shooting. It is about the fundamental right to protect our lives, to protect our homes, to protect our families. It's about the right we have if somebody comes into our home at night seeking to harm our children, to defend our children, and to defend our lives. The red flag laws being pushed by Democrats and gun control activists are designed to deprive Americans of that fundamental right. And for what? As one of today's witnesses wrote in 2020 after reviewing all of the available literature, quote, No research, no research, has found any statistical reduction in crime, including mass shooting fatalities, from confiscation laws, and studies about suicide reduction, show mixed results. That's what the data show. We need to act and we need to act forcefully to stop gun crimes. And I have introduced legislation and fought for legislation to do that. But federal red flag laws, I don't believe are the answer. We don't need to impose Connecticut's dismissive approach to Second Amendment rights on the entire country. Thank you. Thanks. Very good. That should be the end right there, I believe. Again, if you're wanting to share that, of course, now it's in the archive here. It's over on YouTube. The title is Brave Congressman Mox Gary Nadler. After he asks a stupid question in Congress, okay? What do you do with the seven of the many guns? Well, the same thing you do with a magnet-operated gun or a pump, you know, action weapon or whatever. You put it to your shoulder and you shoot it. Dim rod, dim wit, idiot stick. Well, who do you need that for? Well, probably to maintain the counterbalance as part of the checks and balance system by ensuring that the population is at least as well armed, if not better armed than the military. So that when the time comes, they can deal with a threat that might develop from within the illegitimate and in fact mocking administration that hates the Bill of Rights. And for that purpose needs to be perceived as and treated as a threat appropriately. all the minions thereof. So anyway, again, it is Communications Tuesday. Couple things, I wasn't able to pull it up. I was trying not the place where I could do what I wanted to do. But military uniform supply, they're the ones that had the over in the deals section, they have a British Desert DPM Under armor shirt for $10 actually now it's the best price in the country. Everybody else has gone up And they have those in stock, but they did have and they may still have the replacement headliner for the standard Pascat helmet, which the basic screw point should Line up or if not could be made to line up because you can actually re rehole the nylon You can change where the hole goes through the nylon, add another one. And as far as screws, there are screw kits available for fixing the head harnesses to the Pascat, which means it also would work or should work with the SEP-2 helmets that are available at Sportsman's Guide. Since there's a, for $22, they have the SEP-2 helmets. One size fits most they're available in a strip form without them without the basket. Okay without the head basket. So What we have to come up with is a solution and a couple of different companies Coleman's had these also they have the replacement pass get helmet Internal basket liner for about a dollar dollar 25 apiece dollar 50 at the most Now I do know that Gunpartscorp.com had the most of them in their military surplus. So if you're looking at those for $22, that's a heck of a buy for a Pascat type helmet. Another consideration we were talking about, I'd have to see how they line up, are the training helmets. The British ones, although they're about $14 apiece, the training helmets are available. And by the way, you could switch out and use a Pascat basket in the training helmets, the British ones that are a Kevlar pattern. take the very well built head harness that's in those and put it in the SEP-2 helmet which would offer more protection. Again, also they've got Czech chem suits, six sets for $18. That's over at Sportsman's Guide. Six sets of Czech chem suits for $18. They have the SEP-2, or Kevlar helmet without the headliner, the basket. for $22 and also the front and back plates Italian issue ceramic for $35 each and if you want to actually beef up or improve a vest that you might have take a look find out what the dimensions are at the very least you can add a front ceramic plate to your system and you've upgraded your system dramatically I'm taking a consideration, but it depends on how your vest goes together. Now, don't forget, now this is separate from Sportsman's Guide, over at Botash, they've had grade level two, level three, depending on what's available, used body armor, and those carriers, which are over the neck, slash solid plate front, solid plate rear. You might be able to take the ceramic plates that are being offered over a sportsman's guide and insert those into the undercover vest and upgrade that to rifle grade without spending a whole lot because over a bow test when they've had the undercover vest they've been between 25 and $50 to $50 apiece. So you've got a complete carrier, you've got an undercover type, casual type. but they are zip out or they're fold out Velcro so that they hold the Soft plate in place and typically you could slide more armor in there So it depends on what size what's available etc. Check that out See what you know, it might be able to crisscross that gives you a carry system for these Italian ceramic plates that are available at Sportsman's guide So they're trying to come up with solutions. Go ahead call her. Jump in there, please Yeah, Tex-Mex. Yeah, I was looking at those plates, those ceramic plates, Italian plates, but it doesn't say anywhere what level they are. I guess they're probably trying to cover their butts, but what do you think they're what, level three, level four? As I recall, these were supposed to be rifle. Now, even if they aren't, if they're level three plus, they're still worth it for $35. And the ceramic plate... Again, what I would do is put them on the outside of the soft plate on a vest, soft armor, and you've got punch protection. If something stipples real hard through the ceramic, you've still got the soft kevlar underneath to take up most of the thud. And by the time it gets to you, it's gonna be more like a finger punch rather than a fist, which would make a big difference. You might still get a little dimple, or at least you say a little bruise, but it'd probably make a big difference. Well, it would make a big difference. It seems to me though that these were a rifle plate. This is the Italian assault rig that they were offering a member a year ago. When it first started out, they were as low as $35 for the whole vest. They tried to get everybody to buy them when they came down. Then they went back up to $70, $80, and then now they're up around $180 to $200. So these are the inserts for that. But they will work with a lot of other pieces of equipment out there. So if you've got armor and you're looking to try to upgrade but you can't afford to do $300, $400 for a premium grade level four, this offers a lot more protection. Again, just because it's a back plate doesn't mean you have to wear it in the back. Keep that in mind. I know that sounds goofy, but remember these are designed to be a system just like the any of the armor front and back plates. They're designed to integrate and work into each other and overlap accordingly. Still wanting you to move. So they definitely would be worthwhile. The other thing to consider is vehicle armor. Like I said before, remember these could go right behind your seat. In fact, you could flip them upside down. Almost all your seats have map pockets, right? Well, if it's got I don't know did you see the man? Do you have the picture right there in front of you Tex-Max? No, no, I've seen it before but no I don't have in front of me. Does it have the lower wraparound gut wings on either side? What does it? In other words it it does. Okay, well here's what I would do. Well to make a car armor real quick. Flip it around, take the bottom, make it the top. take the top, slip it right into your, like your smaller, if you have a smaller car or a jeep or something like that, where the bucket seat's not as big, you can turn around and slip that right in as is to the map, the map pocket. If you wanted to, you can even put a piece of velcro, you know, put nylon strapping with either velcro or a clip to lock it in place, just keep from bouncing around. And that's a poor man's aircraft bucket armor, like you see in a fighter. Or like even see on any of the new armored vehicles So it would be there's a couple things you could do it for $35. I could put that a lot of creative places Make it worthwhile Yeah, even even a backpack probably Yep, that'd be another option now in fact Depending on how big which one you've got the Alice so large I think could accommodate that in fact you probably You might be able to slip it into the radio sleeve pocket right being on on the back of the pack you know on the inside back I'm gonna go slide it right in there and be right there ready to go. So yeah, there's a number of different go ahead. Go ahead. I'll ask you another question going back to the You were talking about some of the phones. Well, I saw a One of the old back phones, the Motorola back phone. What can you do with one of those? Was that a thrift store? How much did they want for it? I don't remember. It was really cheap. I mean, it was probably $5. I think it was. Well, the thing is that all of the cell phones by law. You're supposed to be able to power up and there's two things you're supposed to be able to do with them even though that bag phone is probably analog, okay? It's not digital. They were by law, they're supposed to be able to power up and you can use them for a 911 call and they're supposed to operate. You can also use them for an operator assist call and they're supposed to work. In addition to that, they were supposed to work with emergency services communication because even those cell phones had the weather and emergency radio circuit on board. Now, some may go, how can I use that as a quote unquote cell phone? Well, in reality, if you want to use the cell phone, if the operator, if the operator assist system is still up, and that depends on which phone company wasn't made these, because some work, some don't, you can use phone cards, which we've done before is use phone cards to operate the phone. You go to a gas station, get a 100 minute phone card. When you plug in the phone and you dial up, you go to operator assist and give them a number and give them the card number and then they charge it off to the phone card. Now otherwise you can do, this is something one of the guys has been working on for a while here, is intermediate or short range phone basically transmitter to transceiver to transceiver operation. They have the ability because they do have what's called the intercom circuit on board, but most of them didn't have it opened up. They have everything there and there's probably a code in the codebook for the phone. Example, if you're lucky, that phone bag probably has the operator's manual, maybe, cross your fingers, in it. Now, in that, all of the cell phones had the ability to be used as an in-shop walkie talkie. All of your plug-in wireless phones for using like for using inside a house or whatever Where you have the ability to go to phone to phone which is walkie-talkie mode Factories use these extensively for on the floor use and I've got a bunch of these that are actually that's what we've set them up for is an emergency Close-range communication say within a quarter or half mile With the 800 Megs of bag phones, the cool thing is that they're grossly overpowered transceiver. Remember, there weren't as many cell phone towers back then. And one of the reasons that they wanted to get rid of these particular ideas is because it would defeat the purpose of the tracking mechanism in that with a YAGI antenna, which I've used many times in those bag phones, You can target a single and talk to only one cell phone tower at your discretion. You don't have the omnidirectional antenna hooked up. You unplug that. You have a piece of coax, plug that into where the antenna goes, which is a coax fixture. You then of course have your coax hooked up to your 800 meg Yagi. You pick a phone target, you know, a cell tower on the horizon as far out as you can identify. And the neat thing about it is that your bar system will help you to register to keep it on target. Now, Yagi's are very, very, very broadcast specific. You have the big, what used to be called beams with CBs. That's basically a big ass Yagi antenna. That's what beams are. But they have to be big when they am. With an 800 Meg the thing is only about the length of your forearm and Ideally where these were originally created was back when the bag phone was was Mostly what everybody wanted to go to because if they were out west of the Mississippi there weren't any repeaters There wasn't hardly any towers But where there were you could put a pole with a paddle underneath your front tire You had had the had the pipe that was attached to the paddle so that it could turn And then you hook up the Aggie antenna with thumb screws. And what you did is you sat there with your bag phone, or I should say laid it on the hood, and you moved the pole back and forth until you got five or four bars, whatever your best signal was. Then you locked the bar in place with another thumb screw, and you could talk just like you're in your house. The advantage of these are is the power output which again if we can get them programmed over to As walkie-talkies as they you know, there was a handy talkie mode Then they'd easily be good for five six miles probably greater typically because the some of the Some of those bank phones are up to 12 or 15 watt It depends on who bought who you know who made them and you know what they were sold for So you've got an incredibly grossly overpowered 800 meg transmitter is what you've got with a bag phone. Far superior to anything anybody's hand carrying as far as performance. As far as potential. Now performance is again now the issue is that they step by step were negating these from operational service. I had again though, by law they still had passed a law, but I don't know if the FCC maintained it, but it was that they had to still be acceptable as emergency service communications devices. So we'd have to test, you'd have to look to, I'll tell you what, look to see what model it is, first of all. If it's Motorola or if it's General Electric, two of the most common. I mentioned Curtis Mathis. Curtis Mathis made a limited number of cell phones and got into that market before they went out of business. About that time was about the time that the larger, or I should say the smaller bag phone systems came into play. And again, very high quality pieces of equipment. Now, most of the time the manual is in the bag. So it's usually just a slip right into a little sleeve and it has all the database for the phone. And if it does have program, because this depends on how old, the last models were just as functional and had all of the features of the conventional digital family of cell phones. Just was bigger, is bulkier, that's all. But the reason it's bulkier is it also is a heavier transmitter, a transceiver. It has more wattage available to work with. So it can be used in a number of different ways. That help? Yeah. Yeah, and I was gonna let you know something else I found at the good old thrift stores I was able to pick up a lot not this weekend and then the weekend before I found the book three of Solzhenitsyn's Gula Garka Pelleko and then the next week I was able to find book two now. I just need book one I didn't know that was three books, but and they're all pretty big and I also was able to pick up 50 cents apiece to a another one he written called Alexander Solzhenitsyn August 1914 got that picked that one up and it's got an inscription on it says to Wayne love mom and 11 372 so I told this book is If it's from 72, that's about the time that his stuff was being smuggled out of Russia. It had been smuggled out through the 60s, but it became very much in vogue. And again, the early 1970s. So that's about the time anybody my age was finding out more about Solzhenitsyn on a larger scale. All of the books, like the Gulag Archipelago, okay, that was a smuggled text. They got that out of the country in pieces and then it was in what was called white paper form Before any book company published it and usually you could find it on college campuses or again where there were higher learning institutions like with the military But it was originally a white paper imagine eight and a half by eleven typed and what it was was it was the you think you could get it two ways you can get it with When it was in the black market, you could get it with the original typewriter stamped Russian text. And then the second half of the Bible you bought was the translated English version. But you had always had both so that if you challenge something that Solzhenitsyn said, if you had somebody who could read Russian, you could go to the counter page and ask somebody, well, does that mean what they say it means? And they could look at it and go, yep, that's a good translation. But it was originally a white paper, so. Well, here's a question. Is it a bound book or is it a paper bound, like a paperback book? No, no, the books I found are hardcover, hardback. Okay, that's the first print. Well, look in the front. Remember that's it may be a 1972. It probably is a first printing. Look in the front of the book and it'll give you the publisher's date and whether or not it's the first, second, third strike or whatever. It'll tell you usually also how many printings of each reprint. It might be a first printing and that's actually worth some money. I mean, all any first strike. First American says here first American print. There we go Yeah, I was I was a little disappointed. I couldn't get but one obviously somebody was cleaning up somebody's grandpa's old house or something, cleaning them out. And I worked during the week, so I only get to go to the thrift stores usually on a Saturday. And so I was, like I said, I picked the first book three up one weekend, and I picked the other two books up the second weekend. But somebody was there who worked there, was telling me, oh, yeah, he's... Because we had a bunch of those books somebody came in and brought a bunch of those Alla soldier needs some books and uh, and you know, and they were they went pretty quickly they said so they're lucky to get the two I got well to be patient but And I was able to I saw did a little search. So just just for Grins, you know, I went ahead and looked them up on Amazon to see if there was any copies And you can get the paper bag for about 14, 15 bucks. But if you've got all three, they had a, if you have all of the hardbacks, the first three hardbacks, they were selling them for 150 for the set. It's still not bad considering. And you have a first edition because, again, the big thing here, I'd still go back to the book, to the store, go a shelf at a time. Now, here's another thing, I was imprinting. So, are the hardcovers all the same color? What color are they? Oh, no, no, the Book 2 is black and thick, and Book 3 is not as thick, and it's got kind of a yellowish tan. And I saw the other cover from the Amazon ad, and I forget what color it was. I think it was white-ish, but yeah, I hope I can find that one. Well, again, you know what you're looking for is you can see the format. If they kept the format the same, then I would go back through and patiently start, you know, top to bottom, look through the shelves because usually when somebody's stacking stuff, they're not worried about where it hits the floor and where it hits the shelf. And because you might be in luck and you never know, you might run into something else in the process. I've done that before too. I've had something right in my hand and completely missed it. I mean, it happens, you're busy kind of, you know, doing the Reader's Digest quick. And it's like, oh, wait a minute. And you go back for a second, you're looking to realize that's exactly what I was looking for. So if you're lucky, that would be cool. That would be the way to go. But again, all those books were smuggled in. Well, actually, first they had to be smuggled out. And of course, it was a high crime for any of Solzhenitsyn's works to leave Russia, you know, the communist state. Of course, they were also doing everything they could to prevent him. That's why they kept re-incarcerating him, when he was surreptitiously writing because he was using many different venues. One of the venues that he used was the Underground Bible Network. I've told you that before. I participated in that way back in the early 70s. We have a place that's gone now, University of Microfilm. I don't know if they even changed location. But they made, it was half microfiche panel Bible pages. And the idea was that we would pay to have the microfiche Bibles done. They're actually blessed in microfiche, about half the scale. And they would slice those into sections and they would smuggle one Bible in. And then when it got over to Russia, they would break down the Bible to six pages. And each person got six pages of the Bible to read. And then they traded it out. They had a whole entire underground network. Having a Bible, a Christian Bible in kosher run communist Russia was a prison offense. Again, the Bibles were smuggled in and while they were doing that, people figured out, hey, there might be some things to be said that people would listen to. Well, Solzhenitsyn was the author and so the same network that smuggled the Bibles in is the same group that smuggled Solzhenitsyn's writings out. Except they didn't have a microfiche. They had to actually figure out ways to creatively hide the documents. And they can only do so much of the book at a time, but they got them all out. I think it's fascinating again. That's tenacious. That's you know staying focused and again being patient Because it took time anything else text max. Go ahead, please. Oh, no, that's it. That's pretty good. But thanks for the Thanks for the advice. Yeah, fine. Bye. Yeah, good. Good puppy Yeah, got a few things in my email. I'd like to tell about at true dot dot com they sell ammo and some guns, but they have the best price I've seen on 9mm. It's DRZ 9mm, 115 grain full metal jacket, 1,000 rounds for $287.50 and it is brass cased reloadable by the description. 1,000 rounds of 9mm, 115 grain full metal jacket, reloadable for $2.8750. That's the best price I've seen in a while. And at boutach.com, they have an eight pack of Surefeed 556 30-round mags for the AR. Eight pack for $90, $89.98, but it has free shipping on that. Which is probably at least 12 to anywhere from 12 to $20 savings. So that is that it sounds like an actual decent deal That is at bowtach.com. Actually, it's pretty good push. Go ahead. Yeah, let's see and that Plastic firearms calm plastic firearms calm They have SDS imports 30 round AR magazines and their polycarbonate smoke semi-transparent with the anti-dilt follower for just a second hand for $8.99 apiece and they are listed as in stock. These are the ones you can, they're not fully clear with sort of smoke, but you can see how many rounds you've got. So they're kind of cool. For $8.99 each, in stock at classicrms.com. Let's see, I think that's all for the moment. I just thought I'd let people know, especially about the 9mm ammo, that does seem like an excellent price to me right now. Very good. And again, it's trushot.com. trushot.com, trushot.com. Also, don't forget AIMS surplus does have some PPU ammunition that came in. I know a lot of it's gone already. It's only took a day. The PPU inventory is really low in general. It looks to me like they're probably prioritized on whatever military caliber the Serbs are selling to one side or the other in the conflict that's going on overseas. You might recall that PPU was building 762 by 51 NATO ammunition for us. for use in Iraq. So they've contracted with us before. A bunch of that stuff was available over the counter as they pitered out in Iraq. They had obviously still production run in motion. But Serbia, of course, the PPU does a lot of other military calibers. They have been doing 30 out of six. M2 actually 30 out of 6 M2 for the grand ammunition brand new inventory not surplus military which is not a problem because we got tons of that but if you're looking for something to shoot you don't shoot your specialized rounds or your best rounds although the PPU is not bad it's the idea that the PPU is fresh ammo you fire it up you reload it. and it's available a number of different sources, but I don't think they have any aim for the moment. However, if you shop around, you may still find it. It's the PPU. I think 150 grain is the standard that they went with, but it's ideally built for the grand rifle. That was specifically why that ammunition was built. Now, if they're doing ammunition for what's going on over in the Ukraine right now, It's obviously going to be 545 by 39 at least. There isn't that much of any 545 by 39 that seems to be showing up anywhere. And so if you do have an AK-74, all you guys have bought all that cheap ammo when we told you to, because you might not have it later, especially if everybody needed it, because somebody else is shooting it. That's the situation you're in right now. So again, We won't see any of those days anymore for surplus of the type that was available, but it made the 762 by 39 obviously useful for us and it's made the 545 by 39 useful. However, we have to husband the inventories that we have. So we're not going to expend any of that ammunition right now. You put the freeze on the 74 and there's no reason not to because you can fire 762 by 39 and you're pretty well familiarized with the 545. All the basics are the same for pretty much everything that's on the American market. So all you have to do is adjust to the difference in the sound of the boom toy when you pull the trigger. And that's no big deal. So you'll work that out. So again, you don't don't expend or shoot any of your five four or five by 39 ammunition for the time being. I wouldn't hang on to that. And if you're going to train, this has always been the case. The fallback is a 7.62 by 39. because it's more affordable. More bang for the buck, as they say, but most important is that that inventory is still at a level of import rate and production rate. In fact, there's two American companies that are now building 762 by 39, I believe. But what I've heard that they got, one of them got Midway's dies. I don't know if that's true yet, but that's the story I've heard. And I saw a little write up on it that I don't believe Midway is doing 762 by 39, maybe they are, but that's where the dyes were required that are being used for production of this other company's new Virgin boxer prime non-corrosive heated deal brass in 762 by 39. But we'll find out more about that probably this in the week coming up. Also, again, gas masks because they're threatening World War III, take it seriously. Besides, it's a regular tool in the toolbox. Once you got it, you've got it for a good long time. The big thing is, men know how to maintain your equipment. If you don't have a gas mask, if you do not have a chem suit, once again, go over to Sportsman's Guide. Punch in, check, chem suits. They have six of the chem suits complete for $18. These are the slick side green and they are more than serviceable enough for what we're doing and it takes and allows you to check off something that you may not have taken care of and if you can't beat that, you can't really beat that price. That is as good as it gets. So six sets for $18. go over to www.sportsmansguide.com, punch in check chemical suits or chem suits. And if all else fails, punch in check surplus and then hit the search and all of the check stuff that's there that Sportsman's Guide will show up. You can scroll down and find the chem suits and away you go. In fact, I'm gonna do that after we're done with the program here once we're finished, which isn't that far away. Another thing, Also is with the situation with is batteries. One of the things I'm noticing is a lot of stores because of the coronavirus scam and what their supply system is is how it worked out or how it has been working for the last couple of years, slow and sluggish. A lot of the better quality batteries are being marked down. So always check the markdown kits. What's nice about this is that these are the copper top or above quality batteries, but made by other American companies, still probably with Chinese slave labor, or Indonesian slave labor, or Malaysian slave labor. But the batteries are heavier. They are not, for instance, the D cell batteries are truly D cell batteries. I run into two different brands. Both of them, I wish there had been more, but we got what they had. At least we actually bought them out. A lot of the D cells are basically a smaller cell battery inside a D cell casing. They don't run as long. They run, but they don't run as long. And they certainly are no better than any of the other Dollar Tree batteries that we've run into. If you're using Dollar Tree batteries, it's not a problem. But even with your, you know, even the better batteries. Rule is, if you're not going to use the equipment right now. Pop the batteries and leave them off to the side in a little Ziploc bag. If you're using it every day, if you're using the cheaper batteries, make a point of inspecting and checking if you're running them for a couple of days straight. And if they look like they're starting to get that little blim along the one seam line for the jackets. Pay attention, it looks like a little rusty line, but it's liquid, looks like it's fluid. Get those batteries out of your equipment because they're not going to damage it. So before that happens, you can pay attention. Just use your common sense. However, check the Markdown carts and pay attention to even some of the scientific sites. because they're making deals right now on this abundance of batteries that did not move. They're not fully outdated or anything like that. They haven't been dipped in saltwater or anything. So they are a useful way to get a better battery for the same price you'd pay for a Dollar Tree battery right now, and they'll run longer. And in fact, again, they're a useful item, especially right now. We have a handful of other pieces of equipment. run into a couple interesting ones I didn't expect to see one two three batteries in. I don't know what's going on. First of all, if you got a fairly relatively common piece of equipment, the one two three battery makes it uncommon real quick. One of the problems of the one two three battery, it works really well. Unfortunately, a lot of specialized pieces of equipment are fighting for the same battery. So there aren't as many of the one two three batteries as there are double A's or triple A's. So you better start thinking ahead about husbanding those one, two, three batteries. Try to avoid buying or using other pieces of equipment that are, let's just say common trade items like flashlights. Common trade items like flashlights should be in AA or AAA or C or whatever you want. I've got a D cell maglite right here next to me. It's a six cell and I'll beat you to death with this. The standard batteries because flashlights are not a critical item but if they are useful then you might want to be able to prioritize the lesser batteries to those and the money you spend on the 1, 2, 3 batteries are for your night vision, your thermal, any of your other support items like your illuminated reticles, you know, although many of those are even watch batteries, not all but some. And again, protect those buggers because really the 123 battery is a perfect choice for creating obsolescence real fast because there's nothing you can really do other than rewire and make a new little battery box for a comparable battery and say a AA or whatever. You can do that. I mean, we've improvised, adapted, overcome, but you shouldn't have to. So just keep that in mind. Another thing, my little Motorola here takes a 9-volt battery. Those are as common as they used to be. And there are a lot of other pieces of equipment out there though that do take 9-volt right now. So if you have 1, 2, 3, or 9-volt and you're going to the dollar store, you won't find the 1, 2, 3's there, but you will find the 9-volt. I recommend buying about 10 of them and putting them on the shelf in, you know, Ziploc bags inside a container to protect them. because that's one of those items also. It's going to be hard to find down the road. You're going to have to improvise, adapt and overcome if you're going to continue to use the equipment. And yes, there are rechargeables in that the military made tons and tons of rechargeable nine volt batteries with the snap heads. Yes, they did. And they're still out there in the surplus world with electronics right now. Anyway, we're talking, we've gone past the hour. Yes, we have for everybody out there guys communications Tuesday
